Googly Eye Dolls Guide and Marks

These funny and cute dolls were popular as novelty dolls during the 1910s-1920. They are not less popular among the collectors today. The term "Googly" means impish faced, large eyed character dolls. The dolls are also known as "Rougish Eyes", Goo-Goo eyes, Goggle eyes and Eccentric eyes. Here are some of the examples of Googly Eyes dolls with marks and identifications.

Armand Marseille Googly Merked A.M. 323

9" Armand Marseille googly marked: A.M. 323. These dolls came on rather crude five piece bodies, but generally have good quality bisque. The eyes are brown and sleep. The A.M. 323 and 253 googlies are not as rare as many other maker's so the price of these cute little dolls appear to be more reasonable. Courtesy Marlowe Cooper.

10" Googly Boy. Brown sleep eyes to side. Five piece body. Marks: A.5/0 M. Germany 323. Courtesy Jeanne Gregg.
