    Description

    Celebrating the American
    history of dolls....
    This delightful set of American made,
    circa 1920s, dollhouse size, celluloid dolls includes a lovely
    pair of 6" tall, adorable (clearly marked)
    Made in U.S.A.
    and
    5 1/2
    Mom
    and dad are exactly alike, but dressed
    as a boy and the other as a girl,
    both have short molded and painted brown hairstyles, very well molded features including blue eyes and molded closed mouths.  Both wear original cotton knit underwear beneath their clothing and have molded and painted, brown knit socks and black, double-strap shoes with flat soles. The boy wears a cute, two-piece sailor boy's outfit with knickers and the girl wears a matching pleated skirt and blouse (both trimmed with green embroidery). They have unjointed arms and legs and are in very good condition with no cracks, splits or breaks (slight dent in back of hair) and will make excellent additions to a celluloid doll/toy collection.
    The children are of similar design with stiff legs and
    jointed arms,
    nicely molded and painted short hair styles and also wear their original adorable outfits. The girl measures about 4 3/4 inches tall and is marked on the back:
    America
    and wears a homemade, off white cotton dress with gathered bodice, short sleeves and belt and her little brother wears a darling, pink, two-piece, sailor suit with wide sailor collar, painted brown socks and shoes and measures: 4 1/4 inches tall. They are in excellent condition with no breaks or dents and no repairs.
    The pink celluloid doll carriage, buggy or pram complete with celluloid infant doll is NOT included and listed separately.
