It is associated with the book &#039;&#039;[[Samantha&#039;s Surprise]]&#039;&#039;. Retail cost was &#039;&#039;$14&#039;&#039; and later increased to &#039;&#039;$16&#039;&#039;.<br /> <br /> ==Second Version==<br /> <br /> Porcelain doll. Black hair tied back in a pink bow. Pink dress decorated with white lace. Pink pantalettes and slippers. Attached wooden soldier doll in the right hand.<br /> <br /> ==First Version==<br /> [[File:Samsxmasdoll.jpg|thumb|left|75px|The original version of Samantha&#039;s Doll.]]<br /> * The original doll had brown hair, a different face shape and mold, and a much lighter skin tone (close to white). This version retired in 1993.<br /> {{clr}}<br /> ==Trivia==<br /> <br /> * The [[Samantha&#039;s Surprise|story]] and collection data explicitly state that the doll is themed after the ballet &#039;&#039;The Nutcracker&#039;&#039;, with the doll carrying a wooden soldier that looks like the one from the ballet (implying that the doll is likely designed after the protagonist of the ballet, Clara). However, the ballet was not known outside of Russia in the 1900s. While &#039;&#039;The Nutcracker&#039;&#039; had debuted in Russia in 1892, it was not introduced outside of the country until 1927 and not in its full version outside of Russia until 1934 in England; the first United States performance was in 1944. <br /> <br /> ==See Also==<br /> <br /> * [[Nellie&#039;s Doll]]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Samantha Parkington]]<br /> [[Category:Samantha&#039;s Collection]]<br /> [[Category:Accessories]]<br /> [[Category:Historical Accessories]]<br /> [[Category:Dolls&#039; Dolls]]<br /> [[Category:Holiday Collections]]<br /> [[Category:Items Released in 1986]]<br /> [[Category:Retired Accessories]]<br /> <br /> ----<br /> &#039;&#039;This page incorporates text from [https://americangirl.fandom.com/wiki/Samantha%27s_Doll the source wiki] ([https://americangirl.fandom.com/index.php?oldid=123007 exported version], [https://americangirl.fandom.com/index.php?title=Samantha%27s+Doll&amp;action=history contributor history]), under [https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ the original text license].&#039;&#039;<br /> </div>
