I love paper dolls, I've always loved paper dolls. When I was little someone gave me a huge suit box full of paper dolls and I remember loving every one of them. They gave me hours of pleasure, dreams, and imagination. Paper dolls have been found dating back to at least A.D. 900 in Japan. They are figures (people, animals, or other non-living things) that are cut of of heavy paper. Separated clothes and other accessories are also printed out in other papers and hold onto the figures by small folding tabs. Besides its function as kids' toys, paper dolls also function as fashion advertising media. Here is a link with instructions on making your very own paper dolls and clothes: http://www.essortment.com/make-own-paper-dolls-52431.html A great source for information and free vintage paper dolls is Sqidoo.com http://www.squidoo.com/free-vintage-paperdolls. First manufactured paper doll: Little Fanny, produced by S&J Fuller, London, in 1810. First American manufactured paper doll: The History and Adventures of Little Henry, published by J. Belcher of Boston in 1812. In the 1820s, boxed paper doll sets were popularly produced in Europe and exported to America for lucky children. First celebrity paper doll: A doll portraying the renowned ballerina Marie Taglioni, published in the 1830s. In 1840, a boxed set was done of another ballerina, Fanny Elssler, as well as of Queen Victoria. These early paper dolls are rare and priced accordingly. It is still possible to unearth paper dolls from unexpected places, so it is imperative never to throw away old papers without thoroughly examining them for these treasures. I've never seen a paper doll for hats. Very unique. For a complete history check out http://www.opdag.com/history.html In researching for this post I found several paper dolls I would love to buy. I'm wondering if a grandmother can get away with cutting out and dressing paper dolls...........hum. I'm thinking, I'm thinking. pepper/Helmet Head

This image is from "Dolly Dingle and The Stories of Mrs. Mousie and Bumpty" Pictorial Review April 1922. Illustration by Grace Drayton. I used this image to create a Wikipedia page for Grace. I couldn't believe there wasn't one already. Paper doll nerds please join me in expanding on that article. I didn't know Grace belonged to something called the "Plastic Club" - an art club just for women artists.
Dolly Dingle is a contemporary of Rose O’Neill’s Kewpies, and was born in 1913. She resembles the Kewpies, and has the same fat, rosy cheeks and wide, almost googly side-glancing eyes, but where most of the Kewpies are cherubs or babies, Dolly is a little girl. Like O’Neill, however, Drayton enjoye

Do you remember the Campbell's Kids. When I was young, there were all kinds of ads in magazines that showed this delightful duo. Today I happened upon a website that gave the history of Campbell's Soups. I found it quite interesting and thought that I'd share. In 1869, right after the Civil War, Joseph Campbell was a fruit vendor. He partnered with Abraham Anderson, an icebox manufacturer to start the Anderson and Campbell Preserve Company in Camden, New Jersey. It wasn't long until the men realized they had completely different visions of what the company would become. Campbell bought out Anderson and created more products including mustard, salad dressing, ketchup and tomato soup made from Beefsteak tomatoes. The soup became a best seller for the company. In 1894, Joseph Campbell retired and turned the company over to Arthur Dorrance, who hired his nephew, John, who had a chemistry degree. He was paid $7.50 per week, which was terrific money for the time period. John realized that he could make condensed soup by removing the heavy water and soup prices went from 30 cents a can to 10 cents. The soups were the biggest sellers that the company had and in 1922, the name of the company was changed to Campbell's Soup Company. In 1904, Grace Weiderseim Drayton, who was an illustrator, sketched illustrations for an ad campaign for the Company. She added children to her husband's advertising layout for Campbell's Condensed Soup. The Company loved them and many of us are familiar with the Campbell Kids. Today Campbell's Soups are used in baking and are a staple of the American culture. Do you still use Campbell soup. I do.
This set is so adorable. Dolly Dingle figurines made by Goebel are too cute for words. Holland figurines. They are in mint condition. They remind me of the Campbell’s soup kids. They stand 5 1/2” each by approx 3 1/2” in width . Great collectors pieces.
