Dee and Cee (1938-1962) The name of the company comes from the initials of the founders. Max Diamond and Morris Cone. In 1962 Dee and Cee was bought by Mattel and the dolls werer marked as Dee and Cee.until 1964.
I just bought this one. So as she has the dee and cee mark I can take it that she is older than 1964.
Most of their products were made under licence for American doll companies such as Horsmann and American Character. Manufacturered in Toronto.
dee and cee were the first doll canadian company to advertise on the telly. there slogan was "Quality above all"
