Item Description
Add this 1930s vintage Horsman Dolly Rosebud doll to your collection. She has been restored and is charming. She is the 16 inch version of this doll.
Edward Imeson Horsman (E. I. Horsman) opened a toy company in New York city, NY USA (1865-present) and became a leader in the toy industry.
In 1930 the Horsman company acquired the Louis Amberg & Son doll company, their competitor and continued to produce some of Amberg's dolls notably the Vanta Baby. In October 1933 Horsman was purchased and became a subsidiary of the Regal Doll Manufacturing Company. For several years, dolls were sold under both names, but in 1940, the company name was changed to Horsman Dolls, Inc., and the Regal name was abandoned altogether. Throughout the 1930s, Regal/Horsman produced mostly mid-priced baby dolls, which were primarily sold through mail order retailers like Sears and Montgomery Ward.
1930s Horsman Rosebud Doll, various sizes to 20" tall, composition swivel shoulder plate head, jointed at the shoulder, with tied on legs, cloth stuffed body with crier, sleep eyes, open mouth with four upper teeth, dimples, mohair wig, doll mark Rosebud or unmarked, had a paper hang tag with it's name. The Rosebud marked head mold was used on other Horsman unnamed dolls, too.
