The term 'Venerable Red-Headed Doll' refers to the iconic ANN doll, which was first released in 1959 by the Ideal Toy Company. The doll was a popular toy for young girls and featured a red-haired, freckled face with blue eyes. ANN was the first doll to feature rooted hair, which made her more lifelike than other dolls of the time. She was also the first doll to come with a wardrobe of clothing and accessories. ANN remains a beloved childhood toy to this day.
