Who’s creation this Little People Twins?
The 1979 Hand Signed Xavier Roberts Little People Twins was one of those incredible toys that burst onto the scene like a rocket back in the day.
Cabbage Patch Kids, a lineup of one-of-a-kind cloth dolls with plastic heads, was developed by Coleco Industries in 1982. It was a soft carvings dolls collection classified as “The Little People” in the United States copyright authority in 1978. So when Roger L. Schlaifer bought the exclusive worldwide licensing rights to the brand in 1982, he rebranded it “Cabbage Patch Kids.”
What makes 1979 Little People Twins so rarest?
Each was handcrafted, and Xavier signed them with a durable pen on their buttocks. They were stamped later in the line, and most, if not all, of these autographs, had an associated date, creating year identification easier. So if you have a signed underneath doll, it may be expensive and rare.
As the popularity of Little People expanded, they began to be embraced rather than sold through Babyland General, a doll hospital. The packaged inclusions are adoption papers and birth certificate documents. A doll with all of its documents is quite valuable.
How much are these Twins Cabbage Patch Doll worth today?
Little People Twins Cabbage Patch Dolls are the most costly Cabbage Patch Dolls. And if you had these twins in good shape, they may be valued at more than $3,500 presently.
Last June 2018, this 1979 Hand Signed Xavier Roberts Little People Twins sold for $3,500.
In addition, the vast majority of 1982 Cabbage Patch Kids came with vinyl heads worth significantly less than those before them.
Entirely, if your doll is handcrafted, wholly smooth, and comes with Little People documents, you might be on to something. And if it is hand-signed by Xavier Roberts, you may have something hugely valuable in your possession.
