American Girl Dolls

Growing up I so wanted to have an American Girl doll. I loved Samantha, Kirsten, and Felicity. I remember cherishing the catalogues when they came. I would spend hours and hours looking at all the dolls and outfits dreaming about the day when I would have my very own.
That day came all too late for me. I was an adult before I purchased my first AG doll for myself while visiting American Girl Place in NYC. I was in college. I didn't get that childhood playtime I dreamed about. But I made a list of dolls I wanted for my collection and slowly I am acquiring them. Only three more to go!
This is what I believe initially started my passion and drive to learn more about history, and not just America's history, but the history of cultures much older than ours.
I found some pics of old Pleasant Company catalogs I'll share here.
So feel free to fall back into your childhood and open your mind to the dreams of your past!

Best Regards,
Lisa
