Cabbage Patch Kids - Saturday Night / The Clubhouse
Background Information: Cabbage Patch Kids [Top] The Cabbage Patch Kids were dolls produced from 1983 - 1989 by Coleco. They had large, round vinyl heads & soft fabric bodies. The gimmick of the dolls was their uniqueness. No two were exactly alike; each doll had a different eye color, facial features, hair & outfit. The subtle differences were introduced with a computer for each run. Each came with a unique birth certificate signed by their creator, Xavier Roberts. They were the must-have toy one Christmas. Parents across the United States flocked to stores to try to obtain one of the Cabbage Patch Kids for their children with fights occasionally erupting between parents over the hard-to-find dolls. In later years, Coleco introduced variants on the original Cabbage Patch Kids & derivatives of the original line of dolls continued to be marketed. Although the Cabbage Patch Kids fad has largely passed, there remain a significant number of die-hard collectors. Cabbage Patch Kids were later parodied with the typically grotesque Garbage Pail Kids trading cards.
