πŸŽ€ The Doll That Knows What Month You Were Born

There was a moment in the 1980s when the collectible doll became something more than a toy. It became a gesture. A way of saying: I know what month you came into the world, and I found the thing made specifically for that month, and I put it in your hands as proof that your birthday mattered. The Russ Berrie Months to Remember series was built entirely around that idea. Twelve dolls, twelve months, twelve ways to say: this one is yours. πŸŽ€

This is the August doll. She stands on her white display stand in the pink Victorian dress and lace apron she was made with. The hang tag β€” "Months to Remember | Porcelain Collectible Dolls | August" β€” is still pinned to her dress with the original safety pin. She has long golden hair in braids, a pink bonnet, brown boots, and the careful painted face that Russ Berrie put on every piece in this line. She is, forty-something years after she was made, exactly what she was designed to be: a keepsake.


🏭 Russ Berrie & Company β€” The Oakland, NJ Gift Empire

Russell Berrie started his company in 1963 out of his car. He was a salesman who believed that the right stuffed animal or the right small gift could communicate something that words sometimes couldn't, and he built a company around that conviction. By the time Russ Berrie and Company went public in 1984, it was one of the most recognizable names in the American gift trade. 🧸

The Months to Remember series was one of the company's signature collectible lines. Each doll in the series was made to represent one of the twelve months, dressed in the fashion of a different era, constructed with a porcelain face, hands, and feet on a soft fabric body. Style 1592 β€” the number on the box of this doll β€” is the earlier, more elaborate version of the August doll. The pink Victorian dress with its white lace apron overlay, the ruffled collar, the bonnet, the boots. The construction details are more intricate than the later simplified versions. πŸŽ€


🌸 August β€” The Birth Month

August is the month of peridot and gladiolus. The birthstone is a warm pale green β€” one of the few gemstones formed not in the earth's crust but in the mantle below, carried up by volcanic activity from miles beneath the surface. Ancient Egyptians called it the "gem of the sun." The birth flower is the gladiolus, named from the Latin for sword β€” gladius β€” meaning strength of character, faithfulness, integrity. August also contains both Leo and Virgo: the confidence of summer and the precision of early autumn in equal measure. 🌸


🏑 The 1980s Collectible Moment

The 1980s were the golden decade of the American collectible. The Bradford Exchange. The Franklin Mint. Norman Rockwell figurines. Russ Berrie's Months to Remember dolls were part of this broader cultural moment β€” sold in gift shops and department stores, displayed in glass-front cases and on piano tops beside family photographs. They became the kind of thing that moved from one generation to the next not because anyone planned it but because they were too particular to discard. This is the August one β€” someone's August, and August meant something specific to somebody. πŸŽ€

Seems to be ok for the money
We use it to power a 2000w inverter for the refrigerator and microwave on our boat where sometimes it will stay on continuously throughout the day and it hasn't let us down. As others have said, the terminals are awful close together but for the money, it's worth it.

Been doing great since 2020
Used this to replace the charging solenoid on my diesel motorhome. Originally used a White-Rodgers OEM relay and it only lasted about 18 months. This has been going strong since 2020 and I use my motorhome about 10 months out of the year with lots of miles.

Buy something better
This relay has experienced failure again after just a couple of months of use. It's not the mag coil that fails but rather the contacts are of such low quality that they corrode beyond their ability to conduct power, and fast. I have had to change two of these so far and am on the third one. The seller will ship replacements but who wants to keep replacing them? I have to travel in my RV with a spare. This relay has never been exposed to the elements. It's safely mounted inside a sealed bay. Be aware of any brands that look like this, they are all the same.

Installed in my RV.
This product works well. It is somewhat difficult to mount. The contact points are a little too close together. These deficiencies are understandable given its low cost and small size.
