Eleanor Roosevelt Plush Doll - Little Thinkers by The Unemployed Philosophers Guild
- If ever there was ever a First Lady who deserved her own Little Thinker doll, it's Eleanor Roosevelt. She was the First Lady for 15 years, supported and promoted the New Deal, served as a U.S. Delegate to the United Nations, and founded Freedom House. However, perhaps her greatest achievement of all was not killing Franklin Delano Roosevelt (Eleanor's husband) when she discovered he was having an affair in 1918. (Think how history might have changed!)
- Our Eleanor Roosevelt Little Thinker doll captures the spirit, dignity, and style of the Great Lady herself. She stands about 12 inches tall and is beautifully clothed in red dress, hat, pearls, and fox stole. Mamie Eisenhower, eat your heart out!
- Little Thinkers are not stuffy intellectuals - they're stuffed intellectuals. Let our Little Thinker dolls add a dollop of culture and humor to your shelves. Collect them all and surround yourself with the greatest minds - in plush form! Why collect books when you can collect the authors, and more? These dolls of famous figures, politicians, artists, theorists, scientists, and rebels make smart and clever gifts.
- From the Unemployed Philosophers Guild. Don't worry. We are employed, just not as philosophers. We're a small, Brooklyn based company specializing in gifts for the sophisticated gift giver. For whatever you need, we have presents of mind.

The origins of the Unemployed Philosophers Guild are shrouded in mystery. Some accounts trace the Guild's birth to Athens in the latter half of the 4th century BCE. Allegedly, several lesser philosophers grew weary of the endless Socratic dialogue endemic in their trade and turned to crafting household implements and playthings. (Hence the assertions that Socrates quaffed his hemlock poison from a Guild-designed chalice, though vigorous debate surrounds the question of whether it was a "disappearing" chalice.)

Others argue that the UPG dates from the High Middle Ages, when the Philosophers Guild entered the world of commerce by selling bawdy pamphlets to pilgrims facing long lines for the restroom. Business boomed until 1211 when Pope Innocent III condemned the publications. Not surprisingly, this led to increased sales, even as half our membership was burned at the stake.

More recently, revisionist historians have pinpointed the birth of the Guild to the time it was still cool to live in New York City's Lower East Side. Two brothers turned their inner creativity and love of paying rent towards fulfilling the people's needs for finger puppets, warm slippers, coffee cups, and cracking up at stuff.
