Hi . . . I'm Janie Johnson, 1962

"OFF to school . . . but first to j.fred johnson. Hi . . . I'm Janie Johnson and this is part of my back-to-school wardrobe. Cut me out, paste me on cardboard and color my outfits . . ." This ad appeared in a Tennessee newspaper on August 26, 1962. I think Miss Janie Johnson is a cute paper doll and I like her early 1960's school wardrobe.
