The Baby Dear doll was made by The Vogue Doll Co. The doll was made from 1960-64.

This doll has a label on back of its neck (Vogue Dolls Inc) and incised E. Wilkin 1960 on top of the left leg. It was sold wearing a rosebud pink and white nightshirt and diaper.

E. Wilkin is Eloise Wilkin, a renown and prolific Little Golden Book illustrator who in 1961 drew Baby Dear in a Golden Book of that name, the story written by her sister Esther.

Eloise Wilkin was the dolls designer.

The display features Little Golden Books illustrated by Eloise Wilkin and of course Baby Dear.
