*I don't own this fashion NRFB so I can't say which, if any posters and inserts originally came with it. Bold listings are those I have used to create this ID page. Anything in Italics I haven't actually seen but have good reason to believe exists. If you have any photos or information/corrections to share, I'd love to hear about it!

	Illustrations: Cartoon	As far as I can tell, only the Jerrica side was shown: the hat is depicted as a wide headband, the shoes are gold (not blue), but otherwise it's pretty faithful to the produced fashion.
