hats and other misc

Hats, shoes, purses, and other little items that have wondered away from their matching outfits and paper doll sets.  There will be no post Friday.

misc accessories

Paper bits and pieces, probably from paper doll sets including pets, furniture, and other little items.  I do not know what any of these items go to. 

misc clothes

Betty Field dress

Clothes without dolls seem quite common when buying cut sets of paper dolls or small lots.  Here are some clothes I have no dolls for.  I am not sure what everything goes to.  The next post will be misc hats and misc accessories.  I am working on coloring some paper dolls and designing a Halloween paper doll for this year (not sure it will be done in time!) If you know any of the outfits/what set they go to, please let me know and I will add a caption.  Thank you.

Maxine and Mable

Here is my slow progress on Maxine (dark hair) and Mable (blonde hair) dolls.  the base was part of a vintage set called Press Board dolls and Their clothes, but I only have one doll plus a doll without a head so I decided to make some outfits for them.  I named the two dolls after my grandmothers.  The original art was by Fern Bistel Peat.  I've started coloring and touching up the clothes but I am nowhere near finished and haven't worked on this project in a long time. 

Mary Ann Grows Up

Mary Ann Grows Up is by Fern Bisel Peat and a variation on Eight Ages of Judy.  This set has six dolls representing a different age of childhood. It is published by Samuel Lowe 1943.  It is a cut set and may be missing pieces.  Another variation of this set is Baby Buggy here.  Also a box set variation Press Board Dolls and Their Clothes which I only have the dolls for can be seen here (number 3) doll base.  Next post I will post the outfits I designed for the base dolls.  I also need to start working on a Halloween Doll so if you have any ideas, please let me know.
