Betsy is dressed perfectly for a party in this sunshine yellow embroidered organza gown. Betsy McCall® debuted on the cover of McCall’s Magazine in May 1951, to the delight of mothers and daughters everywhere, for whom reading the adventures of Betsy and her friends, and cutting out their paper clothes brought imaginative fun to playtime. In 1957, Betsy became an 8-inch hard plastic doll, produced by the American Character Doll Company in conjunction with McCall’s. In 2000, the Tonner Doll Company reintroduced 8-inch Betsy McCall® as a high quality doll for play and collecting based on the original Tiny Betsy.
