Here is my super cute vintage Gingerbread couple by Knickerbocker (circa 1960's). I found this pair two years ago when I was doll hunting. I had to make them mine because I was one of the many children from that era that had one. I named mine "Gingie". He was a newer edition from 1970 but was still soft, cuddly, cute and loveable (photos below).
Today my Gingerbread came out to play because my friend, Linda, posted her vintage Gingerbread plush on Flickr. I also went and searched Flickr and discovered others who had or have the same Gingerbread Knickerbocker plush dolls. I discovered lots of other vintage gingerbread men and fantastic vintage inspired gingerbread dolls, houses and etc. So I immediately started a brand new Flickr group:
