  • Doll with gripping hand construction and clip therefor
    Patent number: 4725257
    Abstract: A plastic clip is integrally formed to provide a flexible finger portion intermediate two relatively rigid finger portions. It is configured to be assembled within a hand-simulating portion of a doll appendage, with the flexible finger of the clip disposed within a thumb-like component of the hand, and it has elements which permit it to be sewn in place. The resiliency of the flexible finger portion will permit the thumb to flex when an object is inserted between it and the component that simulates the remaining fingers of the doll's hand, and to return to its normal position so as to grip the object therebetween.
