Dolls are listed chronologically by name. The name is followed by the date the doll was first produced: for example, "Mitzi" (1961). When the doll was produced for more than one year, it is listed as "Toni" (1949 - 55). This listing is for a doll produced from the same mold using the same material. Sometimes a doll was produced at a later date using a different material or mold for the head or body. The doll would then also be listed chronologically when she was subsequently produced with the changes noted in italics. For example, "Betsy Wetsy®" first produced in 1937 is listed there and again in 1956 when she was changed or "Bonny Braids," first produced as a baby in 1951 using magic skin and again as a toddler in 1953 manufactured in all vinyl.
