Moppets Secret Doll House

My actual childhood toy, circa 1981.

Moppets Secret Doll House is a toy made by Knickerbocker. I believe I received this in 1981 for Christmas.

This toy was one of my most prized. I kept it only in my bedroom. I do remember that I always put Moppet’s shoes in her TV drawer when I was done playing. After years of being packed away, when I took this out, the shoes were still in the drawer. I also named the doll “Muppet.” My niece Morgan plays with this when she comes to visit. And, she always remembers to put the shoes back in the drawer.

Accessories:

Missing accessories: blanket, 1 plate, pizza, and 2 cups. I am hoping that some of the missing accessories are with my Barbie collection.

Accessories I do still have:

Moppet doll with her pink/blue dress, white tights, and shoes.
2 Additional outfits (pj’s and pink dress), plus 3 hangers.
Complete “house” with all decals still in place.
Large over-skirt that covers the “house”.
Furniture: bean bag chair; side table; pop-in shelving that divides the kitchen and living area.
Swing-out” furniture (oven, TV, & mirror).
Built-in furniture (fireplace, dressing area drawer, & bed with shelf).
Accessories: lamp, alarm clock, phone, 1 plate, pillow, comb, & brush.

  4. My daughter had one when she was little, I do not know what ever happened to it. Was trying to find another one for her to give as a gift.

  6. I worked for Kinckerbocker back in the mid 70’s as a 16 year old on the assembly line for this very product. I put the lid on the box it came in, then put the box in a shipping box that contained 12 boxes. When full, the shipping box would be placed on a skid until we reached 30 boxes. Then the skid would be put on a truck and sent to stores. Knickerbocker was in Middlesex NJ. Horrible job.
