giggles IDEAL dollS
ORIGINAL BOXES
Giggles dolls were made by the Ideal Toy Corporation of America between 1967and 1969.
"Giggles is one of the most popular Ideal dolls of the 1960's period. You only have to look at her cute face to see why she is so loved. Those dimples on both rosy cheeks are absolutely delightful. She has blue open eyes which flirt from side to side with her arm actions. She has a pink open mouth showing white teeth.
The expression on her face is one of pure happiness and joy."
The appealing feature for children of these happy smiling dolls was the sound of giggling which emanated from deep inside their bodies. This together with a vibrating action made the doll appear to be laughing so hard her body was shaking. When the doll's arms were pressed together she turned her head form side to side and giggled. .

GIGGLES DOLL IN ORIGINAL BOX, copy of ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS, ORIGINAL OUTFIT, NON WORKING GIGGLE GREEN EYES AUD$200.00
I have a vintage hard plastic working Giggles circa 1960 doll for sale.
She comes in her original box, original costume with those rare black sandals, and her copy of original instructions on how to make her work.
She vibrates inside, and gives those cute glances from side to side with the arm actions. She has lost her voice and does not giggle any longer.
She is one of the most popular Ideal dolls of the 1960's period. You only have to look at her cute face to see why she is so loved. Those dimples on both rosy cheeks are absolutely delightful. She has rare green open eyes which flirt from side to side with her arm actions. She has a pink open mouth showing white teeth.
She has good even colour all over her body. Her head is made of a soft vinyl and her body is a hard plastic.
She has a voice grille at the front and is marked with makers mark on her bottom.
Not sure if she has had a haircut, and her hair is a little dry on the ends.
She comes to you dressed in her original knitted fabric 2 piece outfit, and her extremely rare original black sandals. These are not broken and can be done up at the side.
The bonus to all this is she comes in her original box which does show some wear to it, and one side has been taped up. The front of the box has some writing on it (signature perhaps?) and the graphics have faded over the period of time.
But hey it is 50 years old so it is amazing it is still here to tell a tale.
I also have copies of the original instructions for the operation of the doll.

This lovely homemade coat and matching little hat would be as old as Giggles herself - circa 1960. It has been made with love and fits her perfectly. Some of the white trim has come away from the red fabric around the collar but could be easily fixed. A cute little set.
