The Troll Dolls were originally started by Thomas Dam when he made a preceding woodcarving figure for his daughter. He started the ''Dam Trolls'' brand with the opening of a factory in 1959, which produced plastic dolls, in turn opening up the Dam Things company. The Troll Dolls were produced as "good luck" charms aimed at young children, and were meant to look like human babies, though they were originally based on the actual trolls from Norse mythology. Children were supposed to rub the dolls' hair and look after them, which would bring them good luck throughout the day.
