American Character's 10 1/2-inch Toni doll was due to have some fun. With the reissuing of Tonner's Little Miss Revlon, Dolldom decided to give the smaller set the opportunity to show what made them so popular in the late 50s, this time around dressed by Retros, purveyors of the very best in cocktail wear. Accompanied by Vogue's Jeff, two Toni gals enjoy a cocktail of happiness or two to the tune of Cole Porter's "Did You Evah?" sung by Debbie Harry and Iggy Pop.
