Wow, she is just gorgeous, Goldie!! I mean stunning.. I love dolls of this era and used to have a few but my limited space now means that I must be careful of what I add now and I am only adding small ones at present that don't take up too much space. I would dearly love to see all your dolls!!

My dolly is home now and I have her settled in with her friends. I just love her..

Your dolls are lovely!    I,too, love the doll from the era you collect.  However, I have had to limit my spending and have no more room for the one doll I let myself collect!   That is why I am selling that Queen and many others in the months to come.   Now if I can just look at the wonderful dolls in the thread and let that be enough....not actually have to OWN them, lol.   

 

Your photos are so much fun to look at.  Your little dolls have playthings and accessories - so cute!

Thank you Goldie! I had to sell most of my 500 doll and accessory collection when I became ill 9 years ago, so I understand exactly what you are having to do. I have a new fledgling collection started now over the past two years and am really enjoying being in the doll world again and thankful that I had them at the time.

This mornings sharing are two china head dolls. The one on the left came in a box lot and the one on the right was a gift from a dear friend..

Kimmeldoll!  I love the way you display your dolls with your other vintage and antique treasures.  What a great idea!

 

Here is an Ideal Toni doll from the 1950's.   Toni dolls have the greatest wigs ever !

Re: A Doll A Day, please join!

Hello! All dolls are pretty and collectable to the person who likes that particular type do doll. I guess I am a all around type of doll collector, because I have a little of everything, but when I do shows and Ebay I try to sell things I know. I recently though sold a doll I had no idea what the value was on this contemporary artist doll, and Ebay bidders quickly let me know how collectable she was. I was thrilled with the price she brought, and thank goodness, even though I thought she was pretty, it wasn't one I would regret selling later on. My point is everyone likes something different, and everyone should understand that. I don't know if you have ever tried to make a polymer clay baby without a mold, but it is really hard, if you don't have that special talent. I have a deep respect for those people who sculpt and design dolls. Love what you like, and don't let others bother you. The doll you posted is pretty and unique, and I know a lot of love and thought was put into her design. Smile! Sunnydolls

I was told , and not very nicely that iI could not show dolls on here that were forsale, and they were right , I just didnt read the fine print

and I wasnt selling dolls just some hand made clothing. Sorry I learded the hard way .I don't  upset anyone in here lol

 

your dolls are beautifull,  I think I have one of  those in my collection., but half my collection is in storage , as we arnt sure where we will be in the next couple of years.  I really mostly collect non-breakable doll sense we have not stayed in one place for very long in the past 15yrs.
