The story behind the North American craze,<br />
and collecting them today<br />
OK, ADMIT IT—somewhere, in the past,<br />
there has been a troll in your life. However<br />
that troll got there, you are in good company—trolls<br />
have been immensely popular<br />
dolls, and there seems to be a troll or two<br />
in almost any household you come across.<br />
There have literally been thousands of varieties<br />
of troll dolls produced, by many manufacturers.<br />
In fact, trolls were the second biggest<br />
selling doll of the sixties (the troll heyday!),<br />
right after Barbie! And while children of the<br />
‘90s might remember collecting the wildhaired,<br />
naked dolls or topping their pencils<br />
with the miniature figures, children of the<br />
‘60s were collecting their own versions.<br />
