What dolls are these? They are definitely vintage & cool!

Hello Doll Friends.  Found these at an estate sale today.  I am curious as to who made these?  The large dolls are about 7.5" and the smaller one is about 6.75."

Any idea of the age??

 

Love the painted on shoes!

 

Thank you in advance for any and all help with my mystery.

They are known as "Dress Me" dolls.  Some came in elaborate costumes depicting a place (souvenir) or a holiday or something.  Some were sold naked for "crafts" & redressing.  They don't hold much $ value, but definitely are cool and have their own charm.   For reference only:  http://www.dollreference.com/dress_me_dolls.html

Where's the kaboom? There was supposed to be an earth shattering kaboom!"
