Founded in New York City in about 1910, Effanbee was a pioneer in the doll industry. The founders were Fleischaker and Baum. One of the most popular early dolls they produced was Patsy. This doll was the first doll to resemble a real child, have companion dolls made for her, and to have a wardrobe and her own fan club. In 1934, they introduced the first drink and wet doll, which was known and loved as Dydee Baby. In 2002, the company was saved from bankruptcy by Robert Tonner, who purchased it, so we can look forward to a continuance of new dolls in the future.

What a sweet little couple!  Patsyette and her Groom are both in wonderful condition and come with their boxes.  The boxes are not mint, but still very nice.  Both dolls are wearing their complete original outfits with the exception of our little groom who was so anxious about his big day that he lost a shoe.  Not to worry, we gave him a new pair and will include the one incase he remembers where he left the lost one.  They both have their gold Effanbee heart tags that have never been removed from the box.  One of the stands has been repaired.  All & all a very nice set!

This precious little doll is from the Petite Filles Collection that was made in 1980-1981. Each little girl was dressed in elaborate costumes like their "big sisters", the Grandes Dames. They used Half pint and Li'l Suzie Sunshine. Lili is a Li'l Suzie Sunshine. She still has her original hand tag and is in wonderful condition. As you can see from the pictures, her dress is very detailed as well as her straw bonnet. She is wonderful! She has been stored in a Playmates box that has kept her crisp and lovely, so we will send it in the box with her as well.

These famous little twins were made in 1982. They are based on copyrighted six year old characters from the children’s books. They are 11 inches tall and are fully jointed vinyl. Freddie has molded hair and blue sleep eyes. Flossie has blonde rooted hair and blue sleep eyes. They come with their original boxes, which are a little tattered. We took the protective plastic from around their heads to get the pictures. The dolls are in their original clothes and in excellent condition.
We are including a hardback book “The Bobbsy Twins at Indian Hollow” that was copyrighted in 1940. We thought it should make a fun gift for that special little person to have the the dolls, but to also see where they originated. Perhaps the book could be read in segments at bedtime.
