the factory. Every few weeks, Mary
would put a different doll in the coat
for display. In promoting her "Terri
Lee Doll House," Mary Hargrave
contacted Eleanor Hempel, a wellknown television educator who had a
program on the local TV station in the
1950s called, "The Little Schoolhouse."
(Eleanor also wrote a children's book by
the same name.)
When the business closed, Mary
took this doll home with the mink coat,
where she kept it stored in a cedar chest
during the year. At Christmas, "Terri"
would be brought out and placed under
their Christmas tree, which became a
tradition in the Hargrave family. The
coat remained with the Hargrave family
until May 2014 when I purchased it.
What a wonderful day that was!
Of the 13 "Terri Lee" coats that were
known to have been manufactured and
shipped from the factory, only four
have been located to date - one is in
France (which is family-owned), one
in California, one in Texas, and one in
Indiana. Where are the others? Surely a
$295 coat would not have been thrown
in the trash.
This is where readers can help.
In hopes that someone might know
of this rare coat or even own one, I
will list a few important details and
measurements that are documented
for this coat to assist in identification.
The color of the mink is a light honey
shade, and it should be tagged with the
"Terri Lee" trademark tag. Measuring
from the neck to the hem is 11-½
inches, with the sleeves being six
inches in length. The coat is comprised
of eight "gores," with an ivory taffeta
lining and closing with a hook and eye.
If you can provide any information, are
able to locate or know of one of these
missing coats, or know someone who
won a pony, please email the author at
tldollcollector@gmail.com.

Pictured is Richard's "Broadway's Terri Lee Dollhouse" in Newport Beach, Lido Isle.

This is the storefront
of Mary and David's
toy store.
Mary is standing
in front of the toy
store in Long Beach,
Belmont Shores.

If you would like to see this mink coat it
will be on display at the "Terri Lee Queen of
Dolls Convention" in Evansville, Indiana,
on September 28-29, 2017. I will gladly
email details if you would like to attend.
