Description
This is a sale of the Gene Doll "Incognito" by Ashton Drake Galleries. As you can see from the pictures this item is in Mint condition and APPEARS NEW. The hands do not appear to have any marks or staining, and the face is free from marks or blemishes. The outfit appears to be free from any snags or stains, HOWEVER I DID NOT REMOVE the doll from its tie down or box so I do not know what the back of the outfit looks like. The carrier white box and tissue paper seems to be in good condition. As noted above, the Sunglasses appear to be bent
awkwardly
on the arms, but I did not remove them to investigate. Inside there are 2 plastic bags with various accessories. 1 has a purse and some sunglasses, and 1 with a booklet and
documentation in it. The outer shipping box is included in this sale.
PLEASE UNDERSTAND I AM NOT A BARBIE or GENE DOLL EXPERT, AND I HAVE INHERITED ALL OF THESE FROM A DOLL COLLECTOR. I will answer any questions to the best of my ability, and have posted pictures that I believe are the most important to the quality and originality of the dolls.
PLEASE LOOK AT ALL PICTURES FOR CONDITION AND CONTENTS :-)
Please also see my other auctions and save on shipping!

Story Card
Gene smoothly shifted the white Ferrari 375 MM convertible into third gear as soon as the romantic city streets of Rome melded into groves of dusky green olive trees and lush rows of grapevines heavy with rich purple fruit. Her terriers,
Dottie and Dashiell
, shared the passenger seat, their black noses eagerly whiffing the exotic scents of the sun-drenched Italian countryside. Hard at work on her third on-location film without a break, this rare day off was just what Gene needed to separate her "reel life" from real life. And traveling incognito with sunglasses and scarf is crucial for that separation to occur. Though she dearly loves her fans, sometimes it's nice to go incognito and be just an ordinary, unremarkable person that no one would look twice at.
The powerful vehicle purred as if with pleasure as she deftly passed a slow-moving tourist bus. With her eyes on the road, Gene didn't notice the gaping faces pressed to the bus windows, their lips mouthing, "Isn't that Gene Marshall?" followed by the flash of cameras. She stopped briefly for gasoline, but didn't hear the admiring attendants murmur, "Que bella donna!" A shepherd kissed his fingertips in appreciation for her beauty when she drove past. As she pulled into the pretty country inn in time for her lunch date, the padrone nearly tripped in his haste to welcome this gorgeous blonde American woman to his restaurant. Incognito? No beautiful woman in a convertible sports car goes unnoticed in romantic Italy!
