I found this Franklin Mint Jackie at a "yard sale". Actually it was in a dark shed, sitting on the edge of a table. I made a lunge for her. I paid $10 but it was worth it to me (and since ones in a box sell for upwards of $100 it may have been a very good buy). I was sad not to be able to afford the boxed Jackie and JFK in their inagurual clothes, but was thrilled to get Jackie in her silk taffeta wedding dress. I had to soak the lace veil as it had discolored at the bottom. Now it's all looking great to me!

Wow, what a lucky find! I think this Jackie is the loveliest of all them all and is very desirable at full price. Congratulations on a terrific find!
