Simpich Character Dolls

Simpich Character Dolls

Simpich Character Dolls Ltd. was a dollmaker and home-workshop employer in Colorado Springs, Colorado. In production since 1952, the founders, Bob and Jan Simpich, announced their retirement for February 2007, and the closing of their studio in the Old Colorado City Historic Commercial District.

The dolls themselves range from historical figures to mythological ones, and the most consistently popular are the Christmas-themed dolls.

The dolls have spawned other concepts since their creation, notably the marionette theater of their son, puppeteer David Simpich.
