We carry Madame
Alexander's Russia, Spain, Germany and Yellow Daffodil dolls.
The Alexander Doll
Company was founded 75 years ago by Madame Beatrice Alexander
Behrman, the daughter of Russian immigrants. She was raised over her
father's doll hospital - the first in America - and often played
with the dolls waiting to be mended. Her love of dolls led this
dynamic woman to creating her own line of dolls. Madame Alexander
infused a sense of excitement and wonderment in her fine quality,
handcrafted dolls. She initiated a series of firsts in the toy
industry: the first doll based on a licensed character (Scarlett
from Gone With the Wind), which led to the creation of dolls based
on characters from popular motion pictures; the first to bring
feature baby dolls to market; the first to create dolls in honor of
living people (Queen Elizabeth, the Dionne Quints). Madame Alexander
was also the first to introduce the first full figured fashion doll
(CissyJ) with haute couture outfits. The tradition and elegance of
Madame Alexander dolls continues today with a full line of
collectible dolls, baby dolls and play dolls. The Alexander Doll
Company is the only major manufacturer of handcrafted dolls in
America.
