I am showing you photos of the front and back of the McDonald's Happy Meal Wedding Day Midge from 1991. Until I photographed the back side I hadn't noticed how reminiscent she was of an early 1900s Catholic May Crowning Virgin Mary figure. If you don't know what that is, Catholic school children walked in a parade behind a large statue of Mary who was covered with flowers. May crowning was always on the first.

I never knew that Midge was Catholic!

It's easy to see that this Happy Meal figure is Midge and not Barbie because of the red hair.
