Smallest doll- SOLD
Group of 3 Mammy Dolls - $115.00
|
These 3 little dolls form an interesting collection. While they all depict Mammies, these small rag dolls - often called "pocket dolls" (they all are without much in the way of torsos and have no legs) are quite different.The one with the blue and white dress is a nut head with painted features holding a celluloid baby,arms are paper wrapped wire. The one wearing a red and white gingham dress has a cloth head with embroidered features and fabric wrapped wire arms. She is holding a baby made of cloth and lace. The third one has a head made of a black rubber baby bottle nipple,painted eyes and the arms are twigs.This one has a bit of a problem, as the right side of the black rubber has started to crumble under the dress - not visible.They probably are all pre WWII.
They are 4 1/4" to 5 1/2" tall. An interesting group. Except for the problem described on the third doll, they are all in very good shape.
