Featured bad ted, doll, sweet ted

hey folks

old ted got sold for a lovely profit

got these 3 at a boot sale £10 for all 3

bad grumpy ted (im Keeping )

some sort of doll

sweet ted

any thoughts on age etc, appreciated

 

The guy I bought it from said the doll was a pippi longstocking, but think pippi was a ginger (haired girl)

 

I think that doll has been given a haircut.

 

I've seen this type of doll......cloth body,mask face. I doubt she's Pippielongstocking, but some might think so.

 

Kind of on this style...........



You won't get rich on her................

Sorry to say none of the teddies are Steiff.........but then you already know that..............

 

@BoudiccaJones might be of help..............

There’s a few similar around, saying they were made in the 60s/70s but I don’t know.

 

These are EVERYWHERE, the mask faced dollies.
Originally they had very long legs for children to dance with them and were called Dance With Me dollies or sommet, in the 50s. They morphed into being marketed as merely mask faced in the 60s/70s.

Teddies are about the same age as ole Mask Face.
One is called a Sooty type ... I pick em up if they're cheap, they sell OK xx​

 

Thanks for the info everyone !

 

I've been searching for years for the bunny version of your first ted. Bunzy was my childhood lovey in the 1960s. He was pink, and constructed just like first ted.

 

The bears are so cute.

 

They are. I especially like Teddy Tank Top who looks surprised and happy even with one eye!

 

I'm very happy for you Ted !
