Hedstrom, USA (1940s?)

Photo of a Hedstrom doll buggy

This deep, wooden-bodied Hedstrom doll carriage has an early synthetic hood with a sun visor, and a very modern decoration on the side of the body.

Note the "boodle" in the lower front of the photo. The metal latch at the top of the wood panel releases the fabric expansion which makes the "boodle," giving the occupant much more room. (Or making extra room for shopping, bottles or toys.)

The foot-operated brake locks two wheels, just as it should.

Just like the full-size models, this doll stroller turns into a roomy carriage for one baby once the front seat is fully reclined.

This twin model also folds compactly, making it extremely portable -- more portable than the dolls meant to ride in it!

Lloyd, Orillia-Canada (1970s?)

Photo of a Lloyd doll pram. This beautiful little buggy is Canadian. An extravagant and wonderful red, it's also a marvel of sensible and sturdy design. The best engineering feature must be the vinyl-covered handles front and back on the bed which make lifting and carrying really easy. This carriage undoubtedly had a storm shield to go with the elegant, embossed hood, as there are snaps installed on the body.

Features:

  • red steel body
  • white embossed vinyl hood
  • sun shade on hood
  • snaps on body for storm apron
  • vinyl-clad handles front and back
  • large metal-spoked wheels
  • white rubber tires
