Vintage Reversible Raggedy Andy Awake Asleep Rag Doll 16 Inch Handmade Style

This is a vintage reversible rag doll featuring a design inspired by the classic Raggedy Andy character. This double sided doll features an awake face with black button eyes on one side and a sleeping face with embroidered closed eyelashes on the other. It is dressed in a traditional red and white gingham checkered shirt with a wide collar, light blue trousers with white button accents, and a matching blue cap. The doll is finished with bright orange yarn hair and characteristic red feet. Based on the construction and materials, this doll appears to be a well crafted handmade or kit based item likely dating from the 1970s or 1980s. The use of specific polyester cotton blends for the clothing and the style of the yarn hair are consistent with home sewing patterns from that era, such as those produced by Simplicity or McCall's. The composition consists of a soft stuffed fabric body, likely filled with polyester fiberfill. The exterior features cotton or cotton blend fabrics for the skin and clothing. Details include plastic buttons for the eyes and pants accents, along with wool or acrylic yarn for the hair.
