American Child
Dewees Cochran designed this doll for
Effanbee in the 30s. She was one of the American Children Series. There were
four dolls that I know of and a boy. They ranged in size from 14" to 18" and
had human and mohair wigs, open and closed mouths and sleepy eyes. The
14" mold was also used for the Effanbee Sonja that wore a skating
outfit. Compo 1936 |

in her grey suit by Effanbee. Recreated from Dewees� original molds. Cindy was the modern Cinderella, the one that every little girl would love and dream about and keep forever. Cindy is supposed to be a seven year old All Cindys that size are the same age. Dewees gave Cindy a large wardrobe so she often comes in many different costumes. There was one adult Cindy produced by Dewees. That Cindy belongs to the Dewees Cochran Foundation. There is a large size Cindy but it is produced from the same design as the younger Cindy-just a bigger size. | ||||
