These belonged to my mother who, as a child, fondly remembers her mother reading the books to her. Dates shown in the books are written in Roman Numerals, ranging from 1920 (Raggedy Andy Stories) to 1930 (Raggedy Ann in the Deep, Deep Woods) and the rest in-between. Delightful stories with beautiful illustrations. My mother kept her favorite (Beloved Belindy) and passed the rest on to me. Huge sentimental value to me, can't ever see parting with them.
Books pictured are:
Raggedy Andy Stories (1920)
Raggedy Ann and Andy and the Camel with the Wrinkled Knees (1924)
Wooden Willie (1927)
Raggedy Ann's Fairy Stories (1928)
Raggedy Ann's Magical Wishes (1928)
Marcella: A Raggedy Ann Story (1929)
Raggedy Ann in the Deep Deep Woods (1930)
I was asked to be a Guest Blogger and I chose this set of Raggedy Ann books for my first article. In case you missed it: http://www.collectorsweekly.com/articles/raggedy-ann-the-books-behind-the-doll/
