20TH CENTURY - PART 1

Now we are into periods that you can research simply by looking through the family photograph album. The dolls that I have made in this category have mostly been specific requests from customers, so do not necessarily make up a comprehensive survey of the various styles. There are groups from the 1920's, 1940's and 1950's, but remember that anything else you fancy can probably be made to order. For present day figures  - see Next.

This is part of my Christmas display. The family represents my own in the year 1958 - that's me sitting on the sledge. The figures are variations of ones listed elsewhere on this page, with the exception of  Mother, who is so far one of a kind. The Snow Scene box, like the original full-size sledge, was made by my Father for me when I was very small, and now my little grand-daughter is enjoying it in her turn.
