Alexander Doll Company African American Doll

Alexander Doll Company designs and manufactures all of the exclusive dolls for the Madam Alexander Doll Club. The company manufactures a variety of dolls, including collectibles and play dolls, African American Dolls, in addition to its signature line of Madame Alexander Dolls. 

In the early 1950s, the Alexander Doll Company was one of the first major American toy companies to begin manufacturing an African-American doll. The doll not only fulfilled Alexander's goal of using dolls to expose children to many different cultures, it also allowed the company to extend its marketing reach more deeply into the black community..
