January has almost passed. This month is associated with Janus, the Roman god of beginnings, gates, transitions, and doorways. He is depicted as having two faces, looking both toward the future and back to the past. This charming child belonging to member Kara Lee Bell has Janus beat, as she has three faces to his two. Trudy was introduced in 1946 by the Three-in-One-Doll Corporation and was designed by Elsie Gilbert. She has a composition face and limbs and a cloth body.
The additional faces are hidden by her bonnet and are revealed by turning the knob on top of her head. With the turn of the knob, she smiles, weeps, or sleeps
