Ricky

Domestically Ricky was sold between 1965 and 1967 (In Europe he was still being advertised for sale in 1968). As with Ken and Allan, Ricky came with a beach outfit consisting of jacket, shorts and sandals. He also came with his own booklet, wrist tag and wire stand. He was packaged with card inserts at the shoulders and knees. He is however a much smaller doll than Ken and Allan, so was given his own exclusive clothing range.

1965 RICKY OUTFITS

Ricky’s regular Sunday Suit jacket uses the same fabric as Ken’s tie from Saturday Date. A rarer version of this jacket also exists in the fabric from Ken’s Ken A Go Go shirt (which also has a black collar, not navy blue like the regular one). Many thanks to Yvonne and Feike in the Netherlands for the photo below.

1966 RICKY OUTFITS

With Skateboard Set, it is the rarer version which uses the Saturday Date tie fabric.

BOOKLETS & CATALOGUES

Ricky obviously wasn’t available in Sweden, Germany or Japan until 1966, and Finland until 1967.

The German catalogue for 1968 is especially interesting, as it shows the variation fabric version of Ricky’s 1966 outfit Skateboard Set.
