The doll is made by Wide-A-Wake Products but I can't find a thing about them anywhere. It's 100% Cotton and Black with a plaid dress with the name Cookie in the middle. It also says SANITARY HYGIENIC on the tag and has an Owl for an emblem.
Links to the doll are provided:
This black mammy doll was made in the 1930-1940's. she would have been a copy from a krueger, knickerbocker doll because of the wide feet, she is factory. she has the side glancing eyes like a Mollyes cloth doll. They all produced the masked type faces.
She more than likely was a tourist doll for New Orleans or an advertising doll. She could have been produced under another brand name.
I have somewhere my book on black dolls and when i find it i will look there for you.
You need to take care of this doll, Black dolls are hard to come by since so few were made.
I will try to look on Friday for you and add more information for you.
