Barbara Graff - Lil Orphan Annie
Lil' Orphan Annie

Annie is 4" tall, made from the "Dollhouse Families" pattern.
When I was researching the comics for the original "Annie," I learned a very interesting fact. The strip was written during the Great Depression, a time when abandoned children were a national scandal.

The artist thought that you, the more affluent reader (you could afford a newspaper), would be more comfortable with Annie if you didn't have to look her in the eye. Ouch! And I thought he didn't know how to draw eyes...

Annie and her dog Sandy are $200.
