Ebay here I come!

I actually got into Blythe because of Gina Garan's - Blythe Photography. She was a photo student and used the retro doll from the 70's as a model in her work.

The doll was a bust for Kenner in the 70's because its freakish big head scared the children. Now she's been re-issued by Takara Japan (those crazy Japanese) and the 1970 dolls are going for up to $2,500 U.S.

So if you happen to see one at a garage sale....
