Welcome to “KEN and ME”. There have been various iterations of this site in the past, which, for whatever reason, have magically dissappeared…let’s see if this one will stick.
I have been an avid Ken collector since 1998. It started with the “booklet” and was quickly followed up by my first “real” purchase; a blonde molded hair straight leg Ken wearing “Dreamboat”.

Love at first site…
Kenneth Sean “Ken” Carson Jr. “Ken” (from “fictional” Willows, Wisconsin), premiered at the New York toy show in March of 1961.
He came in a smart illustration covered box, wearing red swim trunks, with a protective cellophane wrap covering his flocked hair and freshly painted face for added protection. he was also wearing his KEN wrist tab. The cello packet with a towel and sandals and the perfect boolklet of all his available fashions was also included.
HAPPY BITHDAY DEAR KEN!
