About Antique Kewpie Dolls

First drawn in the Ladies Home Journal by Rose O'Neill in 1909, the Kewpie doll was a small and mischievous but kindhearted little human figure with a tuft of pointy hair. The cartoons became so popular that production of real dolls, initially from bisque and celluloid, began in 1913. Though Kewpies are still made today, these originals are the most highly valued.
