on back of packaging:
When NASA Astronaut Tony Nelson / crash-landed on a deserted island, he / was probably dreaming of being rescued. / Instead, he opened a mysterious bottle / and rescued a beautiful genie from / ancient Baghdad...and that was the beginning of the highly successful TV / sitcom I Dream of Jeannie. / Of course, Jeannie granted her Master's / wish to be rescued from the island. Then / she stayed around to "help out." / Appearing primarily to Tony and his / friend Roger Healy, she worked her magic / with a nod, a blink, and a "boink"-often / creating as many predicaments as she / solved. The original episodes ran from 1965 to 1970. A Saturday morning / cartoon version began in 1973. / Sculpted by / Patricia Andrews / For decorative use only. Not for young children. / Concue a des fins decoratives seulement. / Ne convient pas aux jeunes enfants. / Handcrafted - Dated 2000
