16" (40.6 cm) Let this floppy red headed darling take you back to a sweet and innocent time. Raggedy Andy has button eyes, embroidered accents, and come with hangtag and sewn in label. Instantly recognizable, Raggedy Ann & Andy are timeless American classics. The brother and sister duo have been charming children and adults alike for almost 90 years. Their red yarn hair and shoe-button eyes have become a mainstay in American popular culture. More than 90 years ago, cartoonist, illustrator, and storyteller Johnny Gruelle gave his daughter, Marcella, a gift -- a long forgotten rag doll that had been stored away for years in an attic. Johnny drew a new face on the rag doll and named her Raggedy Ann. Perpetually smiling and always ready to be hugged, Raggedy Ann quickly became Marcella's constant playmate. They shared countless adventures and quiet moments together. Johnny was amazed at the effect Raggedy Ann had on Marcella and was sure that she would appeal equally to other children. Johnny sent a hand-drawn illustration of Raggedy Ann to the US Patent Office and was awarded, well, what can only be called a birth certificate, dated September 7, 1915. A phenomenon was officially born. Today Raggedy Ann, and her brother, Raggedy Andy, are timeless classic characters that continue to spread Johnny's values of generosity, compassion, and love to generations of girls and boys around the world. $13.96 |
