Dam Troll Monkey $800!




No my friends this is not a joke, seriously! All the way from Denmark, this 1960s Dam (named after its creator) doll is the real deal! I guess they got less ugly and a little more cute with time or maybe not? So if you’re looking to invest in something ugly and cute then let it be Troll dolls. I found this one on eBay for only $800. Hmm…I wonder if there are more expensive Troll dolls out there. Anyone?

In case you somehow missed this “fad” from the 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s because you were under a rock or not born yet please go here for a mini history lesson

  1. Yes, there are a few worth more and that cost more than the Large DAM monkey troll (and there is a small DAM monkey troll). They show up on ebay occasionally...and a few collectors have some of them. Have seen a spotted cow that cost more, a bummblebee bank, an angel protoype, a large reindeer, a couple of large elephants all by DAM. I'm sure there are others too.
