Francie Doll Head Help

Hi All,

 I found a Francie Doll Head and on the rim was the following: 1965 Mattel Inc./ IAPAN What I am assuming is that the I is a misprint and should have been a J forJapan. Has anyone seen this before? I will attach a photo but it is hard to take photo's of it.

 

TIA

Rather than a misprint, I would think more likely part of the J rubbed off some with age/wear/play and looks like an I now, maybe?  But yes, the correct marking would be Japan. 

Where's the kaboom? There was supposed to be an earth shattering kaboom!"

 Hi Kiraalt,

  Thank You for responding. I thought the same thing about it rubbing off but I do not see any sign that the top of the J nor the bottom hook on the J ever existed. I have taken a couple of better pictures using a magnifying glass. I will post them here.

 

Thanks

Ellen
