I remember my mother and grandmother collecting the stamps and me putting them in the stamp book. I was lucky enough to have both the small Lucky Green Doll and the 3 foot high version. How I wish of all my dolls and toys, I had kept that one. I am sure both my mother and grandmother could have put the stamps to some better use turning them in.........they thought of me...it was great reading everyone's memories of the dolls. Also great seeing some pictures of her on the net.

I received my Lucky Green Stamp doll for Christmas I think 1959. I grew up in Peterborough Ontario. I still have her with original green dress, shoes and socks. Her legs are starting to crack with age. Does anyone know how to preserve them??

I too used to have one of these dolls when I was about 7. I do remember it took many books of stamps to get her. I don't recall what happened to her but I know I had her for quite a few years and loved to dress her up and change her hairstyle as a child.

I believe I have one of these dolls. I haven't measured her but I'm pretty sure she is around 3 feet tall, long brown hair, beautiful eyes and I think the dress is exactly the same. She has black shoes and her undergarment. Her leg needs surgery and her head leans slightly to one side. I never had one of these dolls as a child. I bought her near Jarvis, Ontario. She is looking for her original mommy if you are interested :)

I, too, have fond memories of the Miss Lucky Green doll. I received mine for my 2nd (3rd?) Christmas and still have it - more than 45 years later. She is in need of a doll surgeon since one of her legs - at the torso - has broken. The leg stays on, but she must remain standing or it will fall off. I THINK I still have all the clothes (shoes, too) and wonder if anyone would like to give her a home. Price negotiable - I'll be fair.

I have many treasured memories of my 36-inch Miss Lucky Green Stamp doll which my mother and grandmother saved their stamps for. I'm thrilled to discover that others have similar fond memories as well. Unfortunately my doll did not survive the several moves we made while I was young. Recently I've been looking (unsuccessfully) for a replacement doll in excellent condition. Does anyone know where I can find one?

I also had a Lucky Green Stamp doll. I will be 52 next month. I remember my mother and father collecting the stamps for the stamp book. I thought it was 7 or so books that you had to save. Does anyone remember the exact number?
This doll has great memories for me. I was a second child and received hand me downs from my sister for everything--clothes, skates, bikes. This was the first signifcant thing that I received of value that was just for me. It was my birthday gift. Again, I thought I was in the age group of 8 or 9. Does anyone have the exact date of its availability? I had endless hours of play with that doll. The doll still exists. I am desperately hoping that a family member will return it to me. It has great meaning to me.

My grandmother saved the Loblaws stamps and I still have one of the lucky stamp dolls with original clothes to show for her hard work collecting.

When I grew up in Fort Erie, Ontario Canada my mom had saved green stamps to get me this doll that I loved. I do not have it any longer but I was in an antique shop today looking at dolls and I did not find the green stamp doll unfortunatley but I found another doll I got when I was about 8 years old. It is a kimmie eskimo doll but she did not have the beautiful seal skin coat that she came with originally. I remember asking for it for Christmas from the Sears wish book Christmas catalogue. If anyone has the clothes that originally came with her, I would love to obtain them.

Wow - The Lucky Green stamp doll is part of my fondest memories of childhood. The doll along with Trixie Beldon books, mousetrap and another doll called Baby Wrigley or something similar will always hold a place in my heart. Its nice to know that others share the same memory of such a great doll.

I have the 3 foot high Lucky Green Doll. My mother too, saved stamps (it took quite a few books). The doll is in very good condition, with just one shoulder cracked. But she is immaculate and has all her fingers and toes, and original clothing. I have often wondered what her value is. Does anyone know?

In 1957, for my 8th birthday, my friend 'a boy' bought me a doll for my birthday but had put his name in for a draw at the store and won a doll just like this and gave it to me as well! My doll had a nice red dress. Lucky me!
