I have a wardrobe that looks exactly like this one. How could I tell if it is a Richwood piece? Is there a mark on the Ginny dolls? I have dolls that look like the Ginny dolls. They need some repair as the elastic bands on the legs have broken. These dolls are from the mid-fifties. I have a Gerber doll that came with the Gerber plate, spoon, bib,and Gerber baby food boxes. How do you find out the value of these items? Any info. would be appreciated. jfelkel@embarqmail.com

In the early 1950's 8" Sandra Sue, designed by Ida Wood, was manufactured by the Richwood Toys, Inc. of Annapolis, Maryland. She was the same height as a Ginny doll, but a totally different shape. She was a thin doll with moveable arms, legs and head. She had sleep eyes and a glued wig. This doll that came with flat feet or high-heeled feet was only marked on the limbs with a single number so she may hard to identify. She was a very pretty doll and had many outfits, although they are hard to find because they were not marked. The company also made a few furniture pieces for her which were nicely constructed. I was lucky enough to have a Sandra Sue bed for my Ginny (I loved canopy beds!). Interest is the Sandra Sue Doll as a collectible has increased recently.
