Annabelle, made to represent the
Kate Smith TV character, was made
by Madame Alexander in 1952. A
few of our famous 'fifties friends
were the creations of celebrated
stars. Kate Smith, with her many
years as a recording and radio
personality, starred in The Kate
Smith Hour on NBC television. The
show ran from 1950 through 1954, and was broadcast in the late afternoon hour of 4:00 pm
ET. Throughout the rest of the 1950s Kate presented on the Mutual Broadcasting System,
CBS, ABC, and NBC, doing both music and talk shows on radio until 1960. Annabelle was
Kate's creation as presented in Kate Smith's Stories of Annabelle (based on Jane Gale's
book). Kate would read her Annabelle stories on air. Annabelle was so real that Madame
Alexander was inspired to take her Maggie face mold to represent the character with her
red hair, monogrammed sweater and full circle skirt. The all hard-plastic doll was made for
1952 only and came in several sizes. The great songstress who immortalized the American
anthem, God Bless America, was a great supporter for racial tolerance and in a 1945
address on CBS Radio, said, "Race hatreds, social prejudices, religious bigotry, they are the
diseases that eat away the fibers of peace." She went on to say that "it is up to us to tolerate
one another in order to achieve peace." These thoughts ring true in her Annabelle stories.

This Dick Clark doll was produced by Juro in 1958.
Presenting Rock n' Roll to Americans during the 1950s
made Dick Clark a household name. After several years
working as a radio announcer, Clark substitute hosted
the Philadelphia area TV show Bob Horn's Bandstand.
When Horn was arrested for drunk driving, Clark took
over and the show was picked up by ABC television
and re-named American Bandstand. Clark's charm
and presentation style made the new mode of music
palatable to parents while at the same time he was
accused of corrupting American youth with Rock
n' Roll! Millions tuned in to hear the latest records.
Live guest performers were added, and Clark
broke the color barrier by having African American
artists perform their music. At the height of his
early fame, Clark was honored with this 26 ½-inch
beautifully modeled portrait doll with vinyl head
and hands and cloth body. Popular in the 1950s
were autograph animals and dolls. Clark's jacket
was used for signing as presented on the box
cover illustration. Clark later became America's
New Year's Eve television host ringing in the
New Year in New York's Time Square.
