I wonder if anyone has ever seen this early Vogue Ginny Doll dress or has any information about what I feel is a very rare outfit. A slightly different version of the dress is pictured on page 90 of the 1998 edition of the Collector's Encyclopedia of Vogue Dolls by Izen and Stover. The book dates the outfit to 1951, however, my dress has the 1952 tag. This outfit is a wonderful example of the fine quality and creativity of the Vogue Doll Company. The company was known as a cottage industry, employing many sewers who worked from their homes. They sent the finished dresses back to Vogue who then packaged them and distributed the wonderful outfits to stores. I would love to hear from anyone who might have a another special outfit or may have been one of the home sewers.
