TONI
Reproductions by Effanbee
One of the most popular dolls of the 1950's was the Toni doll made by the Ideal Doll Company from 1940-1956. The dolls were marked P-90 - 14"; P-91 - 16"/17"; P-92 - 19"; P-93 - 21"; and P-94 - 22" /24". The dolls were designed by Benjamin Mitchtom, one of the owners the Ideal Toy Company and were made of hard plastic and ranged in size from 14" to 24". Mr. Mitchtom joined with The Gillette Company maker of the Toni Home Permanent to promote the doll that could be given a home permanent. Toni had a special nylon wig for that purpose which made her an advertising doll that came with a small sized Toni Home Permanet kit.
Toni was reintroduced in 2005 through Effanbee Doll Company and is a doll reminiscent of the vintage days of yesteryear. She is a re-creation of the original P-90 14" Toni as originally manufactured by Ideal.
