SHIRLEY TEMPLE

Having said that, I want to share a Shirley who wears a
common dress but has an uncommonly well-documented
provenance. Miss Dorothy Platt won the doll in a drawing held
in the Shawmut Theatre in Shawmut, Alabama, on December 19,
1935. While her pleated party dress may be the most commonly
found Shirley costume, its rayon tag without the NRA (National
Recovery Act) eagle helps substantiate the 1935 date. The NRA
had been declared unconstitutional in March 1935 by the Supreme
Court. As you can see from the of drawing tickets that accompany
her, the movie being shown that day was not a Shirley Temple
film, but rather a production of The Three Musketeers, which
premiered in November 1935.
Her original shipping box shows she was sent from the
Twentieth Century Fox offices in New York to Twentieth Century's
offices in Atlanta, Georgia. Another label indicates she was
subsequently shipped to the Al Dunn Amusement Company in
Lanett, Alabama. Based on internet research, Al Dunn appears to
have owned the theater in Shawmut. Note also the stock number
2018 and the rubber-stamped "Blue" on the shipping box. Most of
Ideal's Shirley boxes of the period are stamped with a similar stock
number indicating size (2018, 2020, 2022, etc.) and costume color, as
is the one inside this shipping box. Doll collectors are indebted to
Miss Dorothy Platt for her careful preservation of this doll's history.

JUANITA (BABY JANE) QUIGLEY

The Shirley Temple phenomenon did not go un-noticed by
Madame Alexander, who was quick to secure permission to
produce the Baby Jane doll in 1935. Modeled to resemble child
actress Juanita (Baby Jane) Quigley, this doll was a gamble for
Madame Alexander. Because the head was specific to only this doll,
the company had to invest in the expensive process of making a
new mold. The doll appears to have been sold for only one year.
Indeed, due to its scarcity today, the Baby Jane doll does not appear
to have been a great seller. This head was not utilized for any other
Madame Alexander doll.
This Baby Jane is approximately 16-inches tall, all original, and
retains the original box with a label displaying a likeness of the young
actress. Her pale aqua dress features a woven check pattern. The dress
tag reads, "Universal Starlet/Baby Jane/Madame Alexander."
