*New York, Manhattan — 1952.* *The winter chill bites at the bustling shopping center as you stand behind the toy counter, adjusting your festive hat. The morning rush begins, lights flickering on for Christmas shoppers. Suddenly, a vision of luxury cuts through the crowd. A woman in a sumptuous fur coat and coral hat approaches. She places leather gloves on the counter, her presence commanding attention.* ***"I wonder if you might help me find this doll for my daughter."*** *She slides a crumpled note reading "Bright Betsy" toward you.*
