"I would like you to meet my friends Raggedy Anne and Raggedy Andy. Cute huh? Yeah. We all had some version of this as a child. Some are older, some are newer. These particular Raggedy Anne?s you could probably find more like this, but they're very collectible. People love Raggedy Anne?s and they love them because they remind them of their childhood. These particular Raggedy Anne?s are very new and they actually look handmade because you can see where the faces have been drawn on, but aren't they precious. This pair of Raggedy Anne and Andy would probably sell at an antique store, oh I would say $45 for the pair. Bye guys, let's take a look at some of your ancestors. Ok let's look at this Raggedy Anne. This Raggedy Anne is a little bit older. I would say she's from the sixties. Sometimes you can tell your Raggedy Anne and Andy's age not only by memory, if you say I had that one when I was a kid, but they have little labels in the back and sometimes they say the maker. If they say the maker then they might also say the year. This Raggedy Anne I would date about twenty years old. This would cost about $35 dollars in an antique store because it's in good condition. On your Raggedy Anne?s and Andy?s you want to look for nice, clean original clothing, and you want to make sure there's no dirt or stains. Stained Raggedys, bad. How cute is this? This is a little baby Raggedy Andy and this is getting more in my age group. He's so darn cute. This guy is probably from the sixties, but he has a label. His label says Raggedy Andy and I would estimate he's from the sixties. He's worth about $40 on his own so size does not matter with your Raggedys. Have fun."
