This doll has been in our family for years! It has no tag and hasn't had one for as long as I can remember. Can anyone tell me anything about it. Notice the tear on her left cheek.

So cute!
WOW! I have one that looks just like this but mine is in a bunny outfit. I have had it since I was a baby. It once played music but the winding key fell off. I've never seen another one until now! Is yours musical? Love it!
It is not musical. Does yours have a tag of any sort on it?
I don't know if it has a tag or not. I'll hunt it down and look. I'll post back when I do.
Found it! The tag says "Columbia Toy Products. Kansas City, Mo"
I see a rabbit that is listed for around $40, they also made a version of Zippy the Monkey
I saw that rabbit too, but it's not the same as mine. Mine has the exact same face as the one above.
Yes I see that. It is just an example of what you have, and what it might be worth.
Thanks! I have been trying to find it under Columbia Toy. No luck yet, but I will continue the search.
I had one identical but it was blue. My grandmother gave him to me in 1962. She bought him at Ben Franklin's Five and Dime store in Milpitas, CA. I've been looking for a duplicate ever since. Enjoy!
