A vintage Charlie Brown doll.  

Boucher Associates sold vinyl dolls of Peanuts characters in the mid 1960s. The company was founded by Connie Boucher, a window designer from San Francisco who got her break by pitching a datebook calendar concept to Charles Shultz. This Charlie Brown was manufactured in Hong Kong in 1966, and Charles Shultz had been living in Sonoma County for almost 10 years by this point. Neither myself nor the Captain had come onto the scene yet, and Aleister Crowley had passed away almost 20 years prior. Today, I appear to be the only one of us left. When I shake the doll, it rattles.
