Remember when summer evenings meant sandlot games and a cracked wooden bat? This Avon “Grand Slammers” porcelain doll captures that easygoing small-town baseball spirit. He’s about 9½ inches tall, dressed in a classic pinstripe uniform with “Grand Slammers #5” stitched across the chest, blue socks, and matching cap. He’s holding his bat and ball, ready for the next pitch. This piece was part of Avon’s Childhood Dreams collection in 1991, made to bring back memories of backyard ball games and hometown pride. It comes with its original metal stand, pamphlet, and box. The box does have a taped tear along the bottom edge, but the doll is in excellent shape with no chips, cracks, or repairs. A great gift for a baseball fan, an Avon collector, or anyone who loves a little Americana nostalgia.
