The trunk is packaged in a retail carton which is printed "take your doll and her wardrobe any where you go". It is substantially constructed to provide storage, protection, organization and portability for a doll and its accessories.

In addition, the designated textile and apparel categories may be subdivided into parts. If so, visa and quota requirements applicable to the subject merchandise may be affected and should also be verified at the time of shipment.
