Talk:Francie (Barbie)

Untitled
Barbie was a real person?!


 * She was named for Barbara Handler, daughter of two of Mattel's founders, Elliot & Ruth Handler. Similarly, Ken was named for her brother.  --Joe Webster 16:27, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Should Tuli-Chan be included in the list of Francie's friends? She was sold in 1974 in Japan, and had the Quick Curl Francie body. She also had some of her own separate sets of outfits, all of which fit Francie.216.215.128.130 (talk) 19:02, 6 April 2008 (UTC)mary/skippercollector

Mary - I just updated this page for Francie, including a section explaining her origin, as well as adding Tuli-Chan in the "friends" section. Lynda :) 9-11-11

I have a question: A Victorian Wedding Dress (Outfit #1233) was issued with the Francie label in 1969. Do you know who Francie was going to marry? Maybe she was just hoping? I haven't been able to find an answer on Wikipedia or elsewhere on the web. Thanks in advance for any help.
