Madame Alexander Presidential Ladies Series IV – Vintage First Ladies Doll Collection (Mint in Box)

Celebrate American history and classic doll artistry with the Madame Alexander Presidential Ladies Series IV, a collectible series honoring six notable women who served as First Ladies—or fulfilled First Lady duties—during the late 19th century. Produced by the renowned Madame Alexander Doll Company, these vintage dolls combine historical themes, period-inspired fashions, and traditional collectible-doll appeal.

Series IV represents an intriguing chapter in White House history, including women who served during presidential administrations following the Civil War. Each character commemorates a distinctive historical figure through a carefully styled outfit and a vintage doll presentation. The collection is especially appealing to historical-doll enthusiasts, First Ladies collectors, and anyone who enjoys preserving pieces of American cultural history.

Lee’s Toy & Hobby lists this series as Mint in Box (MIB), making it a special find for collectors who value original packaging. The listing covers dolls numbered 1420 through 1425. Please note that the listing title refers to the series; confirm whether the purchase includes all six dolls or an individual doll before ordering.
