Samantha Parkington 18-inch Doll Book & Accessories

This 18-inch Samantha Parkington doll brings the classic American Girl Historical Characters collection back in her signature look for the line's 40th anniversary, complete with packaging inspired by the original box design. Her brown eyes and dark-brown wavy hair, styled half up with a bow, are paired with a burgundy, brown, and ivory checked taffeta dress that has a pleated front, puff sleeves, and a buckled burgundy ribbon belt.

Alongside the doll come a taffeta hairbow and plush burgundy ribbon-trimmed hat, plus a brooch, pink purse with a golden clasp and chain, lace-trimmed hankie, black Mary Jane shoes, ribbed tights, cotton bloomers, and a reproduction penny in a paper envelope. The included Samantha's Keepsake Guide paperback follows her story and the early 1900s through scenes, settings, and educational material.
