Allied Grand Dolls 1915-1980

Allied Grand Doll Manufacturing Co., Inc. 1915-1980 (is how the company name appears in advertising) a doll manufacturer of Brooklyn, NY, is also called by the names; Allied Imported, Allied Doll Company, Allied Doll & Toy Company and collectors sometimes refer to this company as Allied Eastern, due to the AE marking found on dolls or perhaps because, they were located on the East coast.

Allied Grand is mainly known today for making large sized vinyl and hard plastic high heel fashion dolls. Dolls were mass produced and sold in bulk to other smaller companies, which marketed the dolls under different names. They also made composition Baby dolls in white or black. Allied's dolls were very affordable and very popular, especially the bride dolls.
