The story for this Gene is as follows. Gene had collected dolls from as far back as she could remember.
They played all the other parts when she was alone in her room recreating her favorite movies. They came to her as gifts for birthdays and holidays. As souvenirs from her parents' world-traveling acquaintances. As the things she saved her allowance for.
And remember, when she said goodbye to New York for Hollywood, the gift her father brought her was her favorite teddy bearto remind her of her family's love. Doll collecting was a part of Gene's grown-up life, too. She carefully picked her favorite dolls to share difficult choices, but she couldn't take everyone! , and headed for the convention. During her speech, collectors were thrilled to hear that their favorite star shared so many of their interests.
But for Gene, the biggest moment to remember came when the convention organizers presented her with a special present: a book of Gene Paper Dolls, filled with paper replicas of some of her favorite costumes and ensembles..
