The exact details of the origins of the Raggedy Ann doll and related stories, which were created by Johnny Gruelle (an American Writer), are not specifically known. One myth is that Marcella (Johnny's daughter who died of an infected vaccination) found a doll in the attic and had her grandmother sew a shoe button on for a missing eye. James Whitcomb Riley, a friend of Johnny's, wrote two poems called "The Raggedy Man" and "Little Orphant Annie". Johnny combined the two titles to create a name for the doll. He based his stories on the interactions Marcella had with her dolls while playing with them.

These volumes are picture guides for Raggedy collectors to see what else is out there that they don't have. I did not include prices because there is no authority that sets a price. It's what you want to pay or what the seller is asking. I did my best to provide the sharpest pictures possible. However, at the time of this writing, I am not able to re-photograph examples.
