Dating to 1965, these TV commercials for Hasbro's "Little Miss No Name" explains the reasons that it "needs more love than any doll you've ever had." Designed by Deet D’Andrade, Little Miss No-Name had arms that extended in a "begging" position and resembled a refugee or orphan. The doll was apparently inspired by the wide-eyed, sad child paintings of Margaret Keane. The utterly bereft and heartbroken Little Miss No Name came dressed in a raggedy burlap sack without shoes. You might say she was the antithesis of Mattel's Barbie, with a large plastic teardrop spilling down her cheek. The doll was not a commercial success but decades later achieved something of cult status among collectors owing to its unique design and rarity.

The song at 1:10 says, "She's Little Miss No Name, she's lonely and blue ... she needs someone to hold her, someone who cares..."
