1954 Sun Rubber Company Disney's "Johnny Appleseed" Rubber Doll

This all rubber 14" tall Johnny Appleseed doll is in excellent condition.

The real Johnny Appleseed was a man named John Chapman, who was born in Massachusetts in 1774.  Chapman became a missionary and traveled through America spreading the word of God and apples. His church forbade its members to harm God's creatures, so he was a vegetarian and an early animal rights activist who was responsible for planting countless acres of apple orchards throughout the Eastern territory.

Disney made an animated short movie, narrated by Dennis Day, about the story of John Chapman, better known as Johnny Appleseed.
