Helene and her Toy Horse Pegasus

 

12-11-1932


This one is in color.  the color is off set


This demure new member of your Doll Family evidently is a lover of horseback riding as she has brought with her a charming riding habit, with riding boots, crop and everything ready for the bridle path.  Her little trick horse, Pegasus is a rather wild-looking animal, and probably not much good for morning canter but he will make an intresting pet around the house anyway.

Desktop Wallpaper Designs

 



Desktop Wallpaper background designs using vintage paper doll outfits from 50 paper dolls (top) and Baby Mine (bottom) I may do a few more of these so if there are any paper dolls you'd like to see wallpapers of let me know! I also tried a Dolly Dingle one using the dolls,but it ended up a bit too creepy.  clothing seems to work better.  These would also make fun puzzles!

Jane Adren's Wardrobe

 

3-23-1941.  So poor Jane's binder file is out of order because I named the files by the day (ie 3-23-1941) and should have put the year first so all the year ones were next to each other.  Anyway.  She has foru outfits and a hat here.

Jane Arden's Wardrobe


 4-26-1942.  That green DRESS! I love it!  Reminds me of Poison Ivy from Batman.  Anway she has three other outfits including a western wear. 

Pose Doll

 





Here is a two page paper doll in Black and White and in color inspired by Pose Dolls. The base and first outfit are based on a box  here.  The outfits are inspired by various pose dolls from the 60s/70s era.  Pose dolls were made of soft fabric/foam and had wires inside that allow the doll to bend.  Bradley is one brand that made these.
