Samantha A Peace Doll

 





This black and white paper doll is from the artist Helen McCook. I think this is a copy, because there is no dated information.  The girl is from around 1908 and is lovely posed in a chair reading a book.  she has four outfits, two with books and two with dolls. These were found in Doll Castle News.

McLaughlin's XXXX coffee

 



This is a die cut premium for McLaughlin's XXXX coffee featuring a girl wearing a red cape.  She openes her cape to reveal a cat in a muff.  There were a series of these but I'm not sure how many.  I only have the one.  From the late 1800's early 1900s
