Ginny’s roots actually extend back to 1922, when a resourceful young woman, Jennie Adler Graves, established Ye Olde Vogue Doll Shoppe in her home in Somerville, Massachusetts. The story is that a "friend", who knew of Jennie Grave's skill in sewing children's clothes, asked her to dress some dolls for a charity event. Unbeknownst to Jennie, the "friend" was selling the dolls instead of giving them to charity! Thus inspired, Jennie Graves began dressing and selling imported German dolls to Jordan Marsh, a well-known Boston department store.
In 1951, Ginny was officially born, named after Jennie's daughter Virginia.The NEW Vogue Doll Company pledges to restore Ginny to her deserved place in the modern doll era, and has worked diligently since 1995 to achieve those ends.
President Linda Smith has stated "Ginny, that engaging little girl of the 1950's does indeed have a place in the 21st century. Her well-loved image, love of fashion, and fun attitude are shining through, and there is much more to come!
