25th Anniversary Collectors, Original Holly Hobbie, Item #16220 - produced by Meritus Industries
In 1974, Knickerbocker Toys licensed the Holly Hobbie character for rag dolls, launched in 1975. These were popular toys for young American girls for several years. Additional products were licensed and produced, including fabrics, furniture, ceramics, games, and stationery. Holly Hobbie products were later marketed by American Greetings in association with Carlton Cards.
Beginning in 1989 and into the 1990s, Holly Hobbie dolls were produced by Tomy. Knickerbocker Toys also began producing dolls, but these were vinyl doll outlet heads with soft bodies, unlike the original cloth dolls (ragdolls).
Some wear from age and use but overall in very good condition.
