During the 1980s, Xavier Roberts’ unique Cabbage Patch kids erupted into immediate popularity. Before he struck his claim to fame though, he had relatively humble beginnings. The idea behind Cabbage Patch Kids was inspired by an old German fabric technique called “needle molding”. Using this technique, he began creating dolls that he called Little People Originals.Xavier took his hand crafted dolls to various art shows in different locations until eventually Atlanta Weekly Magazine picked up his story.
The growing success of the dolls was later documented through both The Wall street Journal and Newsweek. After signing contract with Appalachian Artworks, Inc.
In 1982, Xavier changed the name of his dolls to Cabbage Patch Kids. It didn’t take long for these unique toys to start flying off the shelves. The dolls he created were all distinctly recognizable by their original features and fabrications. Cabbage Patch Kids came in varying ethnicities and were targeted at both girl and boy audiences.
But how popular are these dolls now? If you are a collector who took good care of your dolls from the 80s, you might be able to get up to a few thousand dollars for your Cabbage Patch Kid. James Dudley (1985) – $3,000This 1985 James Dudley Cabbage Patch Kid is in pristine condition and currently going for $3000 on Ebay.
Its condition is marked as new, meaning that the doll hasn’t been taken out of its original packaging and includes all original accessories and papers. There doesn’t seem to be a high demand for this particular doll because of its expensive pricing, but there have been inquiries made on the auctioning website. Blonde Girl Little People Doll (1981) – $1,995Another doll being sold on Ebay is an out of package, blonde girl doll. Although this one is selling for less, there are more people sitting on the item because the doll comes with the original signed “birth certificate”. The birth certificate is signed by Xavier Roberts himself, making the doll a little more rare and personal. This blonde girl doll is also a part of the Little People Original line, which makes it more of a rarity, and thus in higher demand than the packaged James Dudley doll.Mark Twain Collection – $850This particular set of Cabbage Patch Kids was inspired by Mark Twain’s Adventures of Tom Sawyer. The collection includes three Xavier Robert’s soft sculpture dolls.
These three dolls have been designed to mimic the descriptions of Tom Sawyer, Huckleberry Finn, and Becky Thatcher. What makes this set so special is that the characters represent the kids who are a part of an American classic that kids today still read to this day.
