Hi my name is Emma and I am Raggedy-a-holic. I am addicted to these floppy red headed sweet dolls. I cannot seem to stop myself. I don't want to! I know there are many more of you like me out there. This page is dedicated to all of us. So, come along and visit with my collection and the collections of some of my friends.
For those of you who are not familiar with Raggedy Ann, or do not know her history, please read on. One thing though, the most important thing....unlike most commerical dolls, Raggedy Ann was created out of love. This is what makes her very special. Her love is passed on everyday that a little huggable, squeezable Raggedy Ann doll is given to some adoring little girl or in our case adoring big girls. She is a doll for all ages and will be with us for all ages. Thank you so much Johnny Gruelle and his sweet daughter Marcella for giving the world Raggedy Ann and Andy!
Story has it that Johnny Gruelle's young daughter Marcella found an old faceless rag doll in the attic one day that belonged to her grandmother. Her father drew a face on the doll and from then on she became Marcella's constant companion. They named her Raggedy Ann. Marcella's father, Johnny madeup stories about Raggedy Ann to amuse his daughter. Unfortunately Marcella never had the chance to grow up and died at an early age. Johnny immortalized both Marcella and Raggedy Ann by publishing the stories he had told her.
