Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The journey of an irreverent homosexual from the age of 3, forbidden to play with Dawn dolls and provoked enough by abuse to achieve the impossible dream of gathering the only known complete collection of Topper toy factory mistakes and auction incarnations that comprise an unexpected genre. Almost 50 years later, a new aspect of Dawn, a doll that dominated the toy market from 1970-1973 with a reported $13 million ad campaign that propelled Dawn's miniature Mod seduction to outsell the leading overgrown plastic slut, is now presented with familiar Topper factory remnants mixed with an odd displacement to exaggerate absurdity, as only an odd boy who plays with dolls can. Oddness reigns with a new Dawn education and acerbic sense of humor, illustrated with over 300 original color photographs.
