Here sit beautiful, highly collectible matching pair of authentic, original 1910s “Peggie & Teddie” Knock-About Rag Dolls. They have been well cared for and properly stored. Their color reflect that as swell as their condition. These early 20th-century antique cloth dolls were manufactured in London, England, by the historic and renowned Dean’s Rag Book Co. Unlike the common 1980s modern reproductions, this set features the genuine, original early lithographed printing on heavy cotton muslin canvas and contains authentic, period-correct firm stuffing. Both dolls are in remarkable condition for their age, boasting vibrant fabric colors and exceptionally crisp, legible factory stamps on the soles of their feet. Character & Design DetailsPeggie: The little girl features short blonde curls, a teal hair bow, and a green-and-red plaid dress with delicate printed lace trim. She is whimsically depicted sucking her finger while holding her own miniature rag doll. Teddie: The little boy sports dark brown hair, a striking red-and-white striped romper jumpsuit with a black belt buckle, and an oversized teal bow tie. Art Style: These characters showcase the classic, adorable “pouty/rosy-cheeked” aesthetic popularized in the Edwardian and early Art Deco eras (frequently compared to Grace Drayton’s Dolly Dingle designs). Authenticity & Special Markings This set features the definitive manufacturing marks that prove their 1910s provenance:Left Foot (Teddie): Bears the complete, authentic “Dean’s Patent Rag Books Toy Sheets” stamp. It features the famous fighting dogs logo and reads: Washable / Hygienic / Trade Mark / Registered in all countries. “Right Foot (Teddie): Features the rare, historically significant British consumer compliance stamp which reads: “Circle must be covered by numbered certificate guarantee as of hygienic stuffing.

Condition ReportOverall: Excellent antique condition. Colors: Fabric colors remain remarkably bright, bold, and unfaded compared to most surviving examples from this era. Fabric: The heavy woven cotton canvas is structurally sound. No major rips, tears, or open seams. Stamps: The bottom foot stamps are incredibly crisp, dark, and entirely legible-a major plus for high-end collectors. Flaws: Expect light, natural age-related surface wear, minor vintage dust/patina consistent with a century of careful storage, and typical light scuffing on the bottom of the feet.
