POPPET AND BETSY
|
|
In 1968 Patch was given 2 new friends of her own named Poppet and Betsy.
|
|
Poppet was the same size as Patch and could wear any of her outfits. She had brown hair in an ‘urchin’ cut and side glancing eyes. She too was updated in 1970 and given longer centre parted hair but was again phased out in 1971.
|
|
Betsy was Patch’s American friend and stood 6” tall. She was a very pretty doll with blonde hair, a smiling mouth and blue eyes. As she was smaller than Patch, she had 3 outfits especially designed for her. Again she was no longer made after 1971, which makes her and her outfits rare collectors items.
