Yesterday I drove from Maine to New Hampshire to take pictures of some wonderful antique dolls at Withington's. While I was there, Larry and Marcia showed me a charming cloth one of a kind folk doll. Look at that face!
This is quite a large doll.
I didn't remember to ask for the height.
She is 23" in height
Here are some detail pictures:
The gusset in the head construction
brings to mind Presbyterian dolls.
I love her smiling countenance!
The hands are a wonderful folk art detail.
These mocassin type shoes are so beautiful.

ReplyDeleteThank you for making that journey! It enables me to have a peak at that lovely doll! I found the head construction interesting, I've been wondering about how to make the back of the head a bit fuller. Something to learn from!
