company manufacturing toys made of plastic-coated cardboard. One of the toys is a
paper doll, whose "clothes" are made of acetate, and stay on the doll with static
electricity. The company's sales were mainly to large educational institutions until last
year, when the dolls were sold for the first time to a large discount retailer. The dolls
