In the early 1940′s (’40 or ’41), Georgene Novelties, Inc. added a unique design to the Raggedy Ann and Andy line. The Awake and Asleep version was 12″ tall and was two-sided, one awake and the other asleep. The head, torso and arms were all one piece (the heart was printed only on the awake side). The striped legs were attached to the torso and the black feet pointed to the outside (appearing the same from both sides). The yarn hair was a simple strip across the top and sides of the head. The first version had the black outline nose, while the later version (mid 1940′s) had a curved red nose with no outline. Georgene also changed the hair to rug cotton on the later dolls. Ann oufits had eyelet collars with many different floral prints. My examples are definitely not mint but do show the difference between the two versions. Mint condition dolls can be very pricey!
