Girl of the year Dolls
The Girl of the Year dolls are just that, only out for a year. It looks like right at the start these dolls may have been out for more than 1 year. The first 3 appear to have been out for 2 years each. The current Girl of the Year dolls are retired after one year. So all these dolls are retired except for the current years doll.

Great post. Thank you. I enjoyed it. I'm 29 and just getting into the American Girl world. I just got my two year old a bitty baby and it's quality has caused me to fall in love with the brand.
ReplyDeleteLol me too, my mother in law bought my 1 year old daughter her first bitty baby and now I'm having fun looking for second hand dolls to fix up and save for her :)
DeleteThe quality of AG is what has kept them in the forefront of the doll market. I am glad you enjoyed the blog!
ReplyDeleteThis was very helpful. Thank you. :-)

ReplyDeleteI am glad it was helpful. : ) It took me a long time to figure out all these dolls and their different categories. I know many collectors who know all the "Just Like You" dolls, their years and number - wow!
ReplyDeleteCatherine, it can become such an addiction! But a good addiction!
