*Jan Shackelford , first started designing dolls as a business in 1986. A native of Birmingham, Alabama she sold her first babies at local gift shops in town. Her first babies were made of cotton muslin and had handpainted flat faces... The limited edition series were each numbered yet since they were hand made they were still considered one of a kind as each baby could have slight variations in the sculpting and even clothing. Most editions during this era were limited edition of 350 to 500, and most of the editions consisted of 12 to 14 babies each dressed similar to represent the series. In 1991, Jan introduced her first soft-sculpted babies called Young'Úns.
