- Police Officer Flanagan gives a little blind girl, Billie, a Raggety-Ann doll, and she is told she can see it if she uses her imagination; she does so and the slum neighborhood is transformed into an enchanted fairyland, alive with beautiful colors and music.

My grandma had this on a VHS. It really is groundbreaking. They don’t label the blind character as disabled. They even give some perspective into how her world is different. How she sees with her hands. And listens to her world.
I don’t have any idea when this was made. But the advocacy and beauty of it, especially for something so classic is a treasure!
Enchanted Square was made in 1947
So did my gma lol I’m 32 by the way
Even the detail of Billie’s eyes looking “normal” when she’s in her fantasy world is a pretty interesting visual.
Please never delete this video! This is the clearest & most vivid I’ve ever seen this cartoon. It’s my absolute favorite!
They are hard to find aren't they
Hold on to video. Please!❤
Yes exactly! My grandmother had this on VHS when I was a kid (I would have watched it in about 2005) and the film was so blurry and scratched and the sound was a bit garbled. But I watched the whole thing through so many times.
I agree that this is absolutely the best condition I have ever seen of this beautiful gem. This needs to be completely restored, remastered & preserved for future generations of children & adults alike to enjoy as well.
You have excellent taste ❤
I used to cry in tears over this cartoon when I was young.
wow
We all had cartoons and movies that would get us when we were small,
As a Grown Male in the 20s this Cartoon still makes me cry and also the Music of this sounds relaxing too.
same this is the first fictional thing i remember crying over as a kid
Who was the singer for Raggedy Ann? Does anybody know?
This cartoon has a beautiful message, that was well before its time, of how everyone is perfect as they are and deserve to be treated as equals, made proper by the ending quote, "There are some who see with the eyes in their head and some who see with the eyes in their heart." 💝
That quote did stick with me!
Actually is about they Beauty of a soul.
I can't believe they based Annabelle on such a heartwarming doll like Raggedy Ann
thats bc the annebelle doll was an actual ragedy ann doll.
@@taybug2432 Yh but it's a movie they could've chosen some fictional doll
Edit: I just looked it up holy shit it was a real allegedly haunted doll wow
These underatted old cartoons need more love. This was simply adorable
Exactly! I also love that pfp of yours!
These cartoons are so beautiful. They should bring stuff like this back.
I can only recall seeing this once as a child, but it stuck with me. Definitely one of my favs.
I consider The Enchanted Square as the saddest Raggedy Episode, because the blind's issue. The sight is a beautiful gift for every one.
However blindness didn't stop Billie to be happy, this is because Billie has a awesome heart.
I used to have this on a DVD of 50 classic cartoons! God, I can't believe I almost forgot about this. It's so pretty!
OMG YESSSS
One of the first cartoons I ever saw, first viewing it on a VHS tape at my grandparents' house before they gave it to me and my parents. I'd watch it time and again, but the more heavy aspects went way over my head.
Rewatched it the other night, and I forgot how bittersweet and wholesome it was. Also, the animation and art is top notch.

You can see with your heart
Make the dark clouds depart
Dream sweet dreams and I promise you
Your heart will see them all come true
Let your imagination unfold
The world for you to behold
All you need is some faith to start with
You can see with your heart
Voice by Joyce Terry.
Wow I haven’t seen this cartoon in years. I forgot how sweet and sad it was.
Thanks Raggety-Ann in cheering me up and I need a friend like you.
I'm literally sobbing my eyes out watching this😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I think this cartoon marked me in such a way that now that I'm an adult.....my biggest wish for the world (if I can ever make one) is that no one should be "blind" , vision for me as priceless, the simple fact to see the sun light is a gift...this cartoon really stayed in my heart
Thankfully, when the Lord comes back, there will be no more blindness, deafness or any other disability; the world will be a perfect place with only happiness and peace.
I used to think that when I was a child but then I met so many people who were either born blind or went blind due to illness or accidents and they still led happy, creative and fulfilled lives.
I would weep every time I would see this particular episode. Haven't seen this in years. Brings back beautiful memories.
I remember watching this when I was younger now that I’m 22 and watching this, somehow kind of healed my inner child
I ALWAYS come back for the Enchanted Square cartoon short. My all time favorite 😢❤
I watched this all the time and i had the doll too. It really spoke to me when she sees her mother as this beauty when shes just a simple lovely woman.
I used to love this cartoon as a little girl,(And actually still have it on VHS somewhere actually) (And the 1941 one), and I didn't realize the little girl Billie was blind until watching it again years later, When realizing that, It makes it kinda sad but happy and innocent at the same time. =) I love Ann's beautiful singing voice in this too!

I totally agree with you. Cartoons these days are too computerized.
Cartoon of this day have no heart. How sad times have become.
Simply beautiful concept and detailed work. Beatiful message from a time of optimism and innocence. Exquisite
I watched this as a child & it wasn't until I found this on TH-cam that I realized that the girl .....
She is blind
The writing on this one is way way above and beyond on what we've been force fed these days. Its simple, Captivate and touch you very gently.
I used to watch this alongside another cartoon, somewhere in Dreamland. This is by far superior
I have that VHS
gotta feel bad for billie, shes never seen her mothers face at all and probably never will
Not strictly true, she may get an operation to get sight plus as the police officer said at the end "there are some that see with the eyes in their heart"
the soundtrack is so haunting and beautiful. really stuck with me since I was a kid, and I'm so thankful it's on YT!!
I remember watching this when I was SUPER young, like maybe 3. I remember feeling bad for the blind girl.
She still had a happy life.
@@eleanorhogan8643 I was 3.
This was a staple in my childhood, but re-watching at the age of 28, for some reason I think it’s so funny that the beautiful version Billie sees her mom is blonde but the truth is she’s a brunette. Lol I get the point but damn that blondes are prettier stereotype was really driven into my childhood too
Same here! I used to play with Ann as a kid all the time growing up and I love it now as a 27 year old girl.
Such a good cartoon need more like it nowadays
billie got that moé energy
Crazy how I remember these throwback cartoons from my childhood
My grandpa's 3rd wife had this on vhs, it also had a cartoon about an old farm couple at the World's Fair that i loved.
She had tons of old cartoons and Shirley Temple movies. She had a great movie collection❤
Very sweet make my heart smile
I still have this on dvd called: Cartoon Craze Presents: Raggedy Ann & Friends: Suddenly, It’s Spring!
The moment I saw the scene with the blind girl and Raggedy Ann singing the song to her, It slayed me. 😢😭 I was just breaking down in tears.
The episode is so Friggin’ beautiful, bruh.🥹
Me too, I actually have it on two different VHS cassettes. ❤
Memories ❤
I watched this as a kid. It was super cool to see how they interacted with each other. I am also almost blind in my left eye. Paramount should make this into a full movie!!
I know this is kinda stretched, but I'm curious to whether or not the police officer every asked the mother out on a date.
I was getting that same "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn" vibe, where the cop wants to "keep company" with the widow and eventually marry her.
Maybe so.
The music in this is absolutely beautiful!
I love this cartoon, I’m blind from birth a so have a doll like the one in the video.
awww this fillls my hearth with love i remember my old dvd´s with this animations, i love that but this whas my favorite
What the officer says at the end is something we all tend to miss these days.
We all need wisdom like that.
This is the kind of stuff that everybody should watch especially this one.
This gave me nightmares as a kid. It feels so lonely and desolate.
How so?
In what way?
Oooh oh damn lmao i never knew the girl was blind. I was very young when i saw this on dvd 😂
sad but so nice I wish the world was this nice
I think the world is how you choose to make it, sadly there are nasty people in this world but thankfully there are nice people too.
I used to have this on VHS when I was young but I never realized she was blind until now 😢 so much nostalgia ❤️
I’m crying
I understand how you feel I felt the same way too when I was a child. I just didn't understand back then, now I do.
You have a big heart Katharine
Long overdue nostalgia
Finally! I've finally found it! I've been looking for this specific cartoon for years but it was very very hard because I could barely remember anything about it. I could only remember one specific scene of the ragdoll but I could never search it up correctly. I'm definitely saving this so I don't lose it again.
oh she was blind..? I didn't notice im sorry. :(
❤🤗
awww
One of my favorite old cartoons. :)
IM NOT CRYING, YOU'RE CRYING!
This movie always pops in my head when i hear the name raggedy ann. 😢❤
I love this
Beautiful little cartoon ❤
This was one & part of my childhood. It reminded me of Minecraft caves.
I saw this as a child my nana and pap raised me and I loved it so much I had a raggedy anne doll I loved watching this so much, I'm now 30 ❤
Childhood
I'm not crying you are 😭😭😭😭
Even if we can’t see with our eyes we have imagination to help us❤ quote by me Justin Scott
I wonder who threw Raggedy Anne in the bin in the first place?
😦
@@sofiwireles12 I agree, I feel sorry for the poor little thing, good thing the nice police officer rescued her is it not?
I have the video I use to watch this all the time when I was little.
Reminds Me Of "City Lights!", An Old Charlie Chaplin Silent Film!
Wow, it’s been like forever when I use to watch that
Oh my gosh, thank you so much for this. I haven’t seen this since I was a kid and this is really special to me because I’m blind just like the little little girl in the cartoon and I have the exact same Randall and yes, I still have her.
So many good memories 🥰😍
I've could've sworn raggedy ann is once owned by a bratty child before the officer found her
👌👌👌
Love this… one of my favourites ❤🥲
As wonderful as this is, I have to wonder how people in the real world are seeing this. Also, is Raggedy Ann a real being, given Billie clearly wasn’t imagining a voice?
It's a cartoon, it doesn't have to make sense to be entertaining and sweet.
raggedy ann is a cosmic entity
It's a kid exploring their world like she should. Just a little late because of her condition.
Raggedy Ann is alive in a child's imagination. That's how she communicated with Billie. Super cute cartoon and a creative whole hearted idea.
She might be magic.
This is some shockingly good disability rep for something that came out of the 1940's.
so beautiful
Matthew 6:21
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
Love that song you can see with your heart amen that is certainly the truth especially when the Almighty God Himself performs what is written in Ephesians 1:18 when He enlightens the eyes of your understanding.
The only complaint I have is, I wish they had made it longer because I was hoping ragged and would sing more.
Why Raggedy Ann can sing more songs?
I can’t believe I finally find this
i thought this was a dream i dreamt during childhood..but it exsists.
This was the cutest cartoon. I loved it. I never saw it until recently on TH-cam. They just don't make cartoons like this anymore.❤❤❤
OMG MY CHILDHOOD
❤
Some of the old classics are so beutyful. There are a few racist ones, yes but this one is clean and should be saved as treasure.
Con razón le dicen la muñeca poseída

What is this song?
I don't know 😔😶.
Heh actually that song sounds like a tradicional mexican song! But I'm not sure !
The name is "cielito lindo"
..
THIS IS ABSOLITLY ONE OF MY FAVORITES.
This is made cry my eyes out when I was 5, the old VHS. I think it's got a bit even now😟
For anyone wondering, this was in a vhs of a Snow White film titled Snow White and the Magic Mirror (1994). This tape also included a hippo afraid of vaccinations, and a crocodile with a toothache.
Here's the Snow White film in it's entirety: th-cam.com/video/rqdnY5A0EJw/w-d-xo.html
And here's the hippo and the crocodile: th-cam.com/video/4NERiZxkHpY/w-d-xo.html
Thank you!
@@matthewbailey2416 i just tried to watch the hippo one ... That was not on the VHS I had with this raggedy Ann cartoon...
Barbra anne Piper Well this cartoon is almost 73 years old. I wouldn’t doubt if there are multiple tapes with this film on it. The one I was referencing came included in a vhs of a Snow White animated film from the 90’s.
My fav raggedy Ann
