Classic Fashions of Christian Dior

















Here's a Tom Tierney set featuring the amazing fashions of Christian Dior.  This set was published by Dover in 1995 and can still be purchased from Dover's site or Amazon. I love some of the glamorous poses and fabulous hats.

Strawberry Shortcake Christmas Card




Here's a second Strawberry Shortcake paper doll card, very similar but this one is for Christmas. This set has a doll and 6 outfits and a fireplace background.  The colors on this card are brighter and not as 'pastel'

Strawberry Shortcake Card




A vintage Strawberry Shortcake valentine Card.  It includes a doll and 7 outfits.  I love the colors, they have a very soft pastel feel to them.  I will post another Strawberry Shortcake card soon.

New! Sleeping Dolls








Here's the set New Sleeping dolls by Queen Holden.  This set features a little girl and boy.  I really like the patriotic outfits and the little doll with matching outfits.  Whitman is the publisher

Sleeping Dolls







the doll is too cute!

Here's a two doll set by Queen Holden featuring a sleepy eye feature.  Personally, i think these dolls look a tad creepy when the eye mechanism is in/attached.  I cannot figure out if Blinkie (bottom baby) is a boy or girl because some of the outfits seem for a boy and others for a girl.  This set is from 1945 and I often mix it up with New! Sleeping Dolls book which I believe is also published 1945.  I will upload the other sleeping eye set next post.

Judy







A restored 1952 book by Forget-Me-Not publishing.  I usually don't care for restorated books because the colors look too bright but I just love the dolls featured in this book.  I feel bad for Julie and Jan who's names are not in the title. I do not know the name of the artist of this book, so if you do, please leave a comment.
