Queen Holden Paper Doll Dressmaker

 
















This set is from the artist Queen Holden.  It is called  Paper Doll "Dressmaker" and is Whitman publishing company from 1935.  The set came with two dolls and patterns for each doll to make outfits along with paper and sleeves and collars. Because the clothes are hand made each version of this set is unique.  This is my second copy of the set. The first can be viewed https://missmissypaperdolls.blogspot.com/2020/05/paper-doll-dressmaker.html
