Dollikins are 20" dolls originally manufactured by Uneeda Doll Company, a company founded in 1917 in Brooklyn, New York. The dolls were manufactured from about 1957 to 1962 to compete with similar 18–21 inch sized dolls, that were popular through the 1950s and 1960s, such as Madame Alexander's "Cissy", Ideal's "Revlon", American Character's "Toni", Deluxe Reading's "Candy" and Horseman's "Cindy". ==Name== The Dollikins name was probably inspired by the ''Miss Dollikins'' series of books by Anne Jane Cupples chronicling a doll's adventures, that were published in 1870 by Thomas Nelson & Sons. The books featured woodcut plate illustrations by R. Patterson and others, and the series was known as ''The Dollikins Library'' and also as ''The Story of Miss Dollikins''. The first four volumes were titled as follows: #Her Outset in the World, Her Illness, and Recovery #Her Visit to the Seaside and What Came of It #Returns from the Seaside to Her Old Life in the Nursery #Showing How She Learned to Become a Young Lady 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dollikins」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
