Excellent, Pleasant Company, Felicity, Meet Outfit, Accessories, Box. From Pleasant Companys Original, Historical Doll Collection, I have a beautiful, early release, Felicity Merriman doll. She is complete with her Meet Felicity outfit, accessories, book & box.
This is a clean, well, cared for collection from a smoke-free home, bearing a light sprinkling of dust due to being used for display only. Felicity Merriman was released by Pleasant Company in the year, 1991. This doll does not have a tag on her body, which confused me. However, a bit of research revealed that most dolls manufactured before the year 2000 do not have body tags. Likewise, I found it confusing when I noticed that Felicitys meet dress & shift have tags bearing the date 1986, when her meet accessories have the date 1991.
The doll box included in the collection was manufactured by Pleasant Company, from the late 80s to early 90s, which seems to match the manufacturing of the doll & her other items. The box is in very good condition & comes with a horizontal band. The dates on the clothing & accessories, the book publication being 1991, along with the markings on the back of Felicitys neck, including a distinct artist mark, which many collectors associate with Pleasant Companys early dolls, leads me to believe that this sweet Felicity is an early release, most likely, 1991. The following give more specific details.
