If the book is the 1918 edition then I have heard some people selling them for $300-$500. Personally I would put it on EBay and open a bid at about $350. Value of the book will also be affected greatly by the condition it is in. Is the cover soiled? Has the spine been replaced? Are the pages loose? Has the book been signed? You may wish to consider contacting a local bookseller or auction house for an accurate appraisal.
Raggedy Ann was first introduced as a doll in 1915. It wasn't until 1918 that she was introduced in the book "The Raggedy Ann Stories". Raggedy Andy was introduced in 1920, in a sequel book, titled "The Raggedy Andy Stories".
anti-vaccination movement Gruelle created Raggedy Ann for his daughter, Marcella. Marcella died at age 13 after being vaccinated at school for smallpox without her parents' consent. Gruelle became an opponent of vaccination, and the Raggedy Ann doll was used as a symbol by the anti-vaccination movement.
I don't know but I'll buy it.
In the case of Raggedy Ann, it was the doll by about three years. Illustrator and writer Johnny Gruelle rescued an old, dusty rag doll from the attic to give to his young daughter. Since it had no face, Gruelle painted one. They decided to name the doll Raggedy Ann, combining the names of two poems by James Whitcomb Riley, "The Raggedy Man" and "Little Orphan Annie." On September 17, 1915, Gruelle received a patent on the rag doll and in 1918 the first in a series of Raggedy Ann books was published. Raggedy Andy came along two years later.
