Original floral print dress from a 19-inch Raggedy Ann doll made by Georgene Novelties in the early 1950s. The dress has a white ground strewn with pastel blue, pink, and green flowers and sprinkled with tiny black polka dots. At the neck is a ruffled white collar top-stitched with two lines of pink thread and fitted with a snap at the back.
Good vintage condition. Toned with age but no stains. 3 small tears (0.125", 0.125", and 0.25") in left sleeve (visible on close inspection). Elastic at neck and sleeves is mostly spent but intact.
Note: The dress was taken from a 1950s Raggedy Ann doll that was in poor condition and cannot be sold. The label from the doll is shown in the photographs only to indicate the identity of the doll and the dress. The doll is not for sale. Sale is for the dress only.
