Madame Alexander's Sweetheart of the Corn arrived late yesterday and she is certainly worthy of her own post. Since the Alexander Doll Company has labelled her as "Vintage Kellogg's", we can certainly assume that there will be more in this new 2007 Collection.
This adorable blonde haired, blue-eyed 8-inch Wendy doll comes dressed in a light blue and white checkered dress with red and white striped cotton detailing. The front of her dress is adorned with a green felt Kellogg's rooster. Also known as Cornelius the Rooster, this colorful character made his debut in 1958, and has graced the front of the Kellogg's Corn Flakes box ever since.
Also included with this Sweetheart of the Corn Wendy doll is a plush Tony the Tiger, a plush Toucan Sam, and a shiny silver cereal spoon. Kellogg's Frosted Flakes Tony the Tiger "roared" onto the scene back in 1951 with his famous line, "They're Gr-r-reat!" Toucan Sam, famous character on Kellogg's Froot Loops cereal box, made his debut back in 1963.
Incidentally, the Kellogg's Company celebrated its 100th Anniversary in 2006. Waking up to these cereal boxes has been a way of life since most of us were small children.
As with all 8-inch and 10-inch Madame Alexander dolls purchased at Beacon's Glow Collectibles, a free Madame Alexander logo doll stand is included with this purchase of this adorable "Sweetheart of the Corn" Wendy doll.
