(RETIRED) NELLIE O'MALLEY, 1906 HISTORICAL DOLL

Nellie O'Malley, 1906 Historical Doll

Archived American Girl Doll "Nellie" - Retired American Girl Dolls

Nellie was added to the collection of American Girls in June 2004 as part of a new line of BEST FRIEND dolls. She debuted as Samantha's "Best Friend" in conjunction with the Samantha DVD release. Even though Nellie was the ninth historical girl added after the collection was launched in 1986, she is really part of Samantha's collection. Nellie is not a limited edition doll; however, she was "archived" at the same time as Samantha. Sales of Nellie and her collection officially ceased as of May 2009.

Nellie is a resourceful, smart and resilient orphan girl growing up in 1906 New York who is trying to find a way to keep the promise she made to her dying mother -- to keep her family together. Orphaned and abandoned by their uncle, Nellie and her two little sisters are living with her best friend Samantha Parkington's family. Best of all, Samantha's Uncle Gard and Aunt Cornelia want to adopt all three of the O'Malley girls along with Samantha.
