#raggedy ann revival effort

[undergroundbillions]

Hello!

We're noticing more people being interested in the Raggedy Ann fandom since the Amazing Digital Circus pilot released, so we thought we'd update our masterpost on where to find more Raggedy Ann media!

Books:

The first two and most well-known books are Raggedy Ann stories (1918) and Raggedy Andy stories (1920), which are in public domain and free to read online! Camel with the Wrinkled Knees (1924) (which the movie was loosely based on!) is on Internet Archive and available to read without an account. You can find many of the other books on there as well.

Cartoons:

The 1940's has Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy (1941), Suddenly It's Spring (1944), and The Enchanted Square (1947).

You've got the 1977 Raggedy Ann & Andy: A Musical Adventure of course.

The Chuck Jones holiday TV specials: Raggedy Ann and Andy in The Great Santa Claus Caper (1978) and Raggedy Ann and Andy in The Pumpkin Who Couldn't Smile (1979).

Most episodes of The Adventures of Raggedy Ann and Andy (1988-1990) are in this playlist here, and you could probably find any missing ones on Dailymotion.

From the Target crossover we have the animated Snowden: Raggedy Ann & Andy's Adventure (1998) and the live-action ice-skating special The Snowden, Raggedy Ann and Andy Holiday Show (1998).

Music:

I've also got a playlist of all the albums I've found on YouTube or were uploaded by us, and there's many more of the older ones available on Archive. The old Will Wooden and Frank Luther ones are very charming.

Musical:

You can watch recovered archival footage of the full first production of the Raggedy Ann musical (1984), listen to the demo album (~1985), or the Broadway bootleg (1986)!

If you're interested in more, I'd recommend exploring the saved playlists on the RARE YouTube channel or the media tag on the Raggedy Ann Fandom Wiki.

We're a group of Raggedy Ann enthusiasts who got together to search for Raggedy Ann lost media (specifically the musical), but now we collect and archive all sorts of things from the franchise! Our ask box is always open and we love to find things people are looking for, or even just chat about headcanons and such.

I'm so tired right now, but at least I did this for the folks at RARE (if anyone wants to print this and put it in their room, or spread it around the city, know that I support the idea 100%, and send me pictures if you actually print this, I'd love to see)

Here's the printable version, with information about RARE and a QR code from their Discord server. I hope you like it and spread the free advertising I made for RARE!! (Just don't litter your streets with posters)

(MAJOR announcement at the bottom of this post!)

Apologies for disappearing off the face of the earth. I’m still very much involved in RARE and the Raggedy Ann fandom at large, but life gets busy!!!

If you haven’t already watched the Rag Dolly Revue (which you totally should) we put on a cabaret at this years Raggedy Ann Rally in Arcola and ATE!!!

Oh, and in case you missed it, here’s the big announcement……….👀

We are currently planning our first staged reading of Rag Dolly: The Raggedy Ann Musical for Spring of 2025 in collaboration with the Ohio University School of Theatre!

This will be an officially licensed reading of the full revised script with minimal staging, a full cast, and all of the show’s music! This is just the beginning of many more wonderful things to come! For the first time in nearly four decades, this show will have a new life!

More details to be announced closer to the event! Thank you for your support! I’m so excited!

The Raggedy Ann Rally happened recently (which if you didn’t know, that does exist)

And I watched the performance put on by RARE and it was amazing, so I thought I’d upload these old drawings I did based on the lost Broadway show! ✨❤️

Which btw you should check out the Raggedy Ann Broadway show, peak found media right there.

Ann and Andy are nearly finished! Andy still needs a hat, but I’m very happy with how they turned out!
