Mary and Her Lamb Mary Had A Little Lamb sets were introduced in 1908. Sets came with a sheep (lamb), a feeding trough, and a desk with a slate board and reader attached. Sets came in nice boxes with the nursery rhyme printed on the front. |

First Mary The first style Mary head was a two-part molded design with flowing blond hair, a straw hat, dress with apron, and gold rickrack.
|
Second Mary Later, Mary's face design was changed to a more serious look. Her head appears to be molded much like the earlier Mary.
|
|
Third Mary The third and last Mary was changed to a molded head with a shorter hair style. Her dress was changed to a light blue.
|
Mary's Lamb The lamb or sheep was introduced with Mary. Early ones have glass eyes, leather ears, and a brass bell hanging from a red ribbon. The later lambs have painted eyes. The bell on this one is a replacement.
