What time period would you like to see next?

[SlayingSerendipity]

Was wondering even though they've done so much what time period would you like to see next? I'd personally would love to see something between 1960-1975...even though alot of bad happened so did alot of good. I'd love to see the nifty outfits.

Ooooh, I'd love to see a 1924 or 1894 doll... AG could do a lot with those eras. [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]

A girl from 1964 who lives in the South during the Civil Rights Movement, Coal Miner's daughter from 1884, or an Irish/Jewish Immigrant who came to America in the 1880s/1890s.

I'd like to see a 1920s girl. While it might not be an exact time an era I think a Jewish immigrant girl would be neat (and I guess you could set her in the late 1800s).

You have to remember that a ag doll is about 10 years old. In the 60's not too many girls that age dressed like hippies. I lived through them. "Sock it to me" was not for 10 year olds. Not sure I want a ag doll protesting the war outfits. Or the Woodstock lets get it on outfit. [img]confused.gif[/img]

The pilgrem idea is cute. The meet black dress with white collar and white hat would be cute. Not to forget the shoes. But how many black and white dresses do u want? I don't think they used to many colors in their clothing. (But Ag could just change that.) The bed would be a bit like Addy's. (Really Felicity's bed should have ropes also.)

Same problem with the Hawaiian AG doll. Would love to see it but how many grass skirts do you want. (Just for the records, Hawaiian did not have grass skirts. That is so Hollywood.) They wore tea leave skirts. Not tea that we drink, and I am not sure if it is spelled that way. But they are long leaves about 4" wide. I am sure someone knows more then I do. [img]graemlins/idea.gif[/img] I was just thinking that many Hawaiian Kings and Queens did visit England. So there could be some really cute English outfits. Then there is the moo moo. But that was not worn with honor, the Missionaries made the women wear them.

Clothes really changed in the 20's for adults. But I am not sure how much for children from what Samantha and Nellie have.


I wonder if they will come out with another historical doll? But you can bet what every they come out with, will have lots of research behind it.

Maybe a girl from the future.

I would LOVE to see a girl from 1914. I know it seems similar to Sam, but this would be a girl living through the most formative years of the 20th century: the outbreak of WWI, the sinking of the Titanic, the rise of America as a superpower, etc. I'd also love to see 1804 and 1814. I mean, anyone living in 1804 saw the end of an era. The days of American revolutionary heroes was ending, and the country was uncertain. In 1814, we saw our first war as a sovereign power. I mean there are way too many unexplored eras [img]smile.gif[/img]

I would love to see a northeastern coastal lighthouse girl, maybe from 1884 or so.

Pilgrims did dress in other colors, but they were darker and plain, for practical reasons. Also, our modern "pilgrim" outfit is rather inaccurate. They didn't have those ridiculous big collars that we see at thanksgiving time. If you look at Plymouth outfits, they are really nice. I think they could do alot with a girl from that time, but it would absolutely have to be accurate. The Thanksgiving stories and expeditions have been changed over time, and some occurances never happened! Primary sources prove that the pilgrims stole corn from Naticve American graves and were horrible to the Indians. I am not going to get into all of the details, but AG would have to be very careful with accuracy!

I would like to see a girl from one of the earliest colonies, like Roanoke or Popham Colony (in Maine). I think it would be neat to have a doll from the 1500's!!!
