I have a doll in it’s original box with original tags, including the price tag (Flint and Kent $1.98). The box says A Georgene Product made by Georgene Novelties, Inc. New York City and the item number is 5600. The tag says A Georgene Doll Sunny Maid Georgene Novelties, Inc. New York City made in USA. She is made of rubber with rubber hair and a painted face. She is wearing a sun suit and has socks and shoes. She has never been played with. Can anyone give me any idea of her value?

I also had this doll as a small child and played with it forever. It was my favorite. This doll was eventually made several ways and was also a “white baby” as I assume the country at the time called for it. I had seen many adeptations of it online several years ago but not lately.
My doll also has deterioration due to the materials but just felt like a real baby to a little girl. If ony they could reproduce them today I would buy an other as there is not any form of restoration that I know of and I have tried. I had family in Stl Louis and heard of the baby on the radio through my grandparents but I was born in 1951 so did not hear the radio first hand that I know of. My sister had Sunny Tears also of the Sun Rubber Company collection of dolls. She has faired better and my sister still has her and loves her. It is a doll I wish I could have passed on. I miss her but have the memories.

Mom and Dad told me this story many times as a child. I was taken to a local doll store to choose a doll for my forth birthday. I wanted the amosandra doll and called her by name too. She was Lila from the first moment I saw her. I named her after a woman living in a house next door to us. She and her family lived in a second floor apartment across from us. I was tall enough to reach the window and would yell to her often to ask her to go outside and play with me. She would go out with Mom and I and it apparently made a huge impression on me. Her name was Lila Terry. I often gave my little doll hugs, rocked her to sleep and feed her water. I changed her diaper made out of a cloth hankie held by a saftey pin. I have such wonderful memories of “my” Lila. She unfortunately did not withstand time and in my late teens I brought her out to show Lila I still had the doll named after her. I finally had to leave her go but as you see I still miss her.

Comment on Sun Rubber Company Gerber Baby by Vicki Carter

My mother just received a Gerber Baby Doll, with “Gerber 1952″ stamped on the back of the neck. It is wearing a red and white gingham romper, with jeans and a shirt over it. I believe the romper is original. It is in very good, clean condition. It has eyes that move from side to side. Does anyone have any idea of what it may be worth? Thank you

I too have fond memories of my Amosandra doll and would love to add one to my collection now. At the time I had my doll I didn’t connect her to the TV show. When I was about 12 years old, my grandmother encouraged me to give away my dolls to a younger little girl. I didn’t know how to say NO! so Amossndra and a white compositin doll named “Nancy” my favorites, were lost to me.
