Rock Flowers
"Spin my record! Watch me spin!"
By Euphrates



These colorful six and a half-inchers
were to Dawn what Jem was to Barbie.  While Dawn was at the Beauty 
Parlor (trying to bolster her self-esteem with a new doo because of 
her inferior articulation), Heather, Lilac and Rosemary were rocking 
the free world, not so much with music but certainly with style.  
Mattel gave the world the Rock Flowers and their pre-disco clothes from 
1971 to 1974.



The girls, and later the guys, were packaged with a .45 record featuring
2 Rock Flower songs.  The clothing sets were packaged in record-shaped
cards and are just dripping with flares, flowers and fringe.  The songs
on the records are typical Archies/Josie and the Pussycats tunes about
love and sunny days.

When looking for Rock Flowers today you might have a hard time coming
up with shoes and sunglasses, not only for the obvious reasons (how
many got dropped down air conditioning vents?), but also because the
dolls were dumped on the market at the end of the line in 1974 as
generic Fashion Dolls, without shoes or sunglasses.
