The Pedigree (later Marx Toys) Sindy doll was officially introduced to little girls on Sunday 6th of September 1963 at 6pm with a 30 second TV commercial in the London area. She was the first UK toy ever to be advertised on television. She was Britain's answer to America's much more glamorous (and some would say brash) Barbie. She quickly became Britain's best selling doll and was awarded 'Girls Toy of the Year' in 1968 and 1970.

Sindy was given a huge number of "scenesetter" items including: Comfortable bedroom furniture, smart kitchen units and with wall ovens and eye-level grills, bathrooms mirroring the fashion for colored suites (Sindy's 70s bathroom was a garish amber-yellow and brown), lounge and dinning room furniture, wall units, hostess trolleys and comfy sofas all reflecting the tastes of the time.

This love seat is a sofa made for two people and Sindy's version was quite formal looking and very upright in design. It was made from burgundy red moulded vinyl plastic with a high button back, upright buttoned arm rests, and two moulded cushioned seats.
