The Eegee Doll Company was founded in 1917 by Mr. and Mrs. E. Goldberger. They claimed to have made 3 million dolls a year . The dolls were distributed through Monroe Hitz and Company. Many of the dolls were sold through mail order houses . In 1923 they started to use the Eegee Trademark . Most of the dolls made by the Eegee Company were unmarked .One of the most popular composition dolls made by this company was a Shirley Temple look a like " Miss Charming" They made many mama , character ,and carnival dolls .They also made the Cigarette Girl and other Boudoir type dolls.
 
This adorable doll was made by Eegee in the 1920's and is marked on the back of each of her upper legs with "E.G.". She is a sizeable 29" tall, and is a big, heavy girl.
 
She has a composition head, shoulder plate, arms and legs. Her head swivels and she can be easily posed. Her composition is in great shape, with some small cracks on the legs, but no lifting or missing composition. She has all of her fingers and toes. She has four upper teeth, and rosy lips. Her cloth body is in very good condition. Her big brown eyes have full lashes and open and close. She has not been repainted.
She has a human hair wig which is full and in very nice condition.
 
I made her a dress and matching bloomers from vintage batiste cotton fabric fashioned after a vintage doll dress. She has a vintage bonnet. She has replaced shoes and socks.
