This page
shows pictures of the first issue of 9 Baby Faces.
We're not completely sure which of the black dolls
were included in the first issue.
The
black dolls in the photo above were never produced. Natalie with black hair
was not produced although there were photos of her in
the catalog and on the boxes.

#1 So Sweet
Sandy, #2 So Suprised Suzie, #3 So Happy Heidi and #4 So
Loving Laura

Initially
we thought Laura was part of the second generation of
dolls, because Mel sculpted her head mold with the
second batch (Tina, Karen, Sally etc.) but even
though her head mold was made later, she did become
part of the first production of Baby Face dolls.

Six black dolls
were shown in the first Catalog and were apparently
part of the first issue of dolls. Although there are
pictures of other black dolls, these six were the
only ones actually produced (except for the 4 black
bathtub babies.) #6 Black Sarah is now considered the
most rare or hard to find of all the Baby Face dolls.
