Are you a fan of Kenner’s Blythe doll? If you are, Manchester UK is the place to be this weekend! The BlytheCon UK 2012 convention is celebrating the 40th anniversary of Blythe this year.
Kenner first introduced the Blythe dolls in 1972, but they never really took off with children. The line only lasted about a year, but now the dolls are highly sought after by collectors. Here is a great article over on The Guardian about the history of Blythe.
The convention sounds like a great time! We hope all the Blythe fans have a lot of fun this weekend!
