Grace Drayton

[2][3] The Campbell Soup Kids and Drayton's other children characters were drawn in a cute cherubic style often with round faces, plump bodies, and rosy cheeks.

[2][3][7] With her sister Margaret G. Hays (1874–1925) as writer, Drayton produced The Adventures of Dolly Drake and Bobby Blake in Storyland and The Turr’ble Tales of Kaptin Kiddo in the period 1905–1909.

[2][3] Drayton designed the popular Dolly Dingle paper dolls, which appeared in the women's magazine Pictorial Review.

[2][5] Grace Drayton died in 1936 and is buried at the Holy Cross Cemetery in Yeadon, Pennsylvania.

[3] Drayton's Dolly Dingle dolls are part of the Joseph Downs Collection at the Winterthur Museum, Garden and Library.
