During the 1940's and the 1950's, Georgene Novelties created many cloth dolls. They are most noted for their famous and very collectible Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy dolls. Another one of my favorite Georgene Dolls is the comic strip character "Little Lulu". These dolls were cloth with a painted mask face. These very cute dolls were 13-14" tall and were manufactured between 1944 and 1961. Lulu had a partial "stringy" yarn wig adorned with a red bow. She was dressed in a removable red cotton dress decorated with white rick rack, white collar and panties. Some dolls were dressed in a cowgirl outfit which are highly collectible today. During this time, comic books were very popular among young readers. Other comic strip characters manufactured at the same time were Alvin, Nancy, Sluggo and Tubby. MIB dolls are a wonderful find for the boxes alone are very collectible among comic strip buffs.
