This was an AWESOME video. I didn't know most of this stuff so...very glad you invested so much time on this. Thanks to Paul for his camera work and always love to hear about your Mom. I LOVED seeing your Mom's Madame Alexander dolls when I was there. Can't wait to come back. Please do more of this kind of educational stuff. SO didn't know most of the great stuff you guys covered. Thanks again.
Wow, thanks for the awesome feedback! Paul's stoked you noticed his camera work. So glad you enjoyed the educational bits and my Mom's Madame Alexander collection. Can't wait to have you back! More educational content is on the way!
Great video❤ The antique dolls are my favorite. I would think I died and went to heaven in your doll shop❤
My thoughts while I was watching this!
Me too.
Thank you for this most informative video. Love your style; so natural and uncomplicated. The stone doll you showed is the famous "Venus of Willendorf" in Austria. I have seen it. It was found in a small village in the province of Lower Austria by the name of Willendorf, hence its name. The doll is 4.5 in tall and said to be 25,000 to 30,000 years old.
This is a great intro- I do know the types of materials that have been used historically, but seeing the dolls up close is so helpful. I enjoyed every minute and I hope you will continue with this as a mini series. You present so very well and it is a pleasure to listen to you.
Wow, thanks for the awesome feedback! I'm really glad you found the up-close look at the dolls helpful. Great idea on making it a mini-series, I'll definitely consider that. So happy you're enjoying the content!
Thank you, what a wonderful collection. I love watching these, learned so very much!
I love listening to you teach about dolls
I just love all your dolls , I was at a flee market and I bought a rubber doll like the one my mom had that I use to play with , it brought me such joy to find her , I didn't think that I would ever find one just like her.
Wow, that's awesome! Finding a doll that brings back such special memories is like finding a hidden treasure. So glad you could experience that joy. Thanks for sharing your story and for the love on our dolls!
Take care,
Rachel
Rachel, I loved this show. You did a great job.
I loved this video Rachel. It’s always good to go back to the basics. I love seeing the antique dolls in your shop and I always learn a little something in every video. Nice to see you and Paul working as a team! Thank you so much for this informative video. You have so much to share with us. 🙏😊💕
Thank you so much!
I just got into making cloth dolls and your videos have been so fantastic to watch during the process. I am so thankful to you for sharing your knowledge and experience here.
thank-you for this great info. I mostly have collected playline, plastic dolls, from the 1970s on, so i have very limited knowledge on the older antique dolls. I have only started to get into them in the past few years. I love that you make these type of doll more accessible to everyone by taking the mystery and confusion surrounding this older stuff away. i was always scared to get into the older dolls, because it seemed so overwhelming, i didn't even know where to start. Your videos have helped me understand antique dolls, and the differences between them. This video is a great compilation of so many things that you have touched on before, but all in one place! You are such a blessing to the doll collecting community, and i enjoy everything you create, but most of all the love, and joy that You, Christopher, Paul, Stanley, Linda and everyone in your circle, have shared with all of us! You're just an amazing, positive light to everyone, and i am a HUGE fan of yours.
Oh, you just made our day! Thrilled to hear that our videos are helping you dive into the world of antique dolls. It's a fascinating journey and we're so happy you're a part of our doll community. The VDC Team works hard to spread joy and doll love, so hearing that it makes a difference is the best reward. Thanks for being an amazing part of our journey and a shining member of our community! 🌟🌈🎉
Great videos. I lie the miniature dolls 8" under. I know you have some in your doll shop and I had suggested in the past if you would kindly do a close up review of their compositions and styles.
Chock-full of valuable information! You do an amazing job breaking it all down for us. Thank you Rachel!
Glad it was helpful!
Love this video!!! I don’t collect older dolls but love learning about them.
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for tuning in!!
Thank you for what you are doing & sharing with the world on historical dolls. Love ❤️ antique dolls so much!
Aw, thank you! It's an absolute joy to share the history and beauty of antique dolls with fellow enthusiasts like you. Here's to more doll love and history! 🎉💕🎀
Great video, very interesting. Maybe for a next video: about different kinds of dollhair and hairstyles?
Great video!
Rachel to me you are an expert because you know so much more than I could ever know, just listening to you helps me alot , it's alot of fun when you visit people and show their dolls thank you so much for all you do to help me along the way God bless you Cindy

Omggg i've been waiting for the antique content. We need so much more!😭😍
Loved this video!
Thank you, Rachel. It was fun to see examples of various types of dolls and materials. I'm a modern doll collector but it's so interesting to learn the history of dolls and dollmaking.
So glad you enjoyed the video! Even if you're into modern dolls, the history behind dollmaking is pretty fascinating, right? Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the refresher.
Great video. I am learning so much watching your channel. Thank you Rachel!
You are so welcome!
Thank you, Rachel. This video was so good and interesting... You are a huge communicator and keep me interested all the time, despite English is not my first language!! I LOVE your blouse, in fact you always look gorgeous. And every corner of your shop looks amazing with all the treasures you have in there. We are waiting to see more videos like this, please. ❤❤
Oh, thank you so much for your lovely words! 😊 It's fantastic to hear you're enjoying the videos, even as a non-native English speaker. That means the world to us! We'll definitely keep the doll magic coming. Stay tuned and sending you lots of love! ❤️❤️
So many great dolls, loved watching this video ❤
Glad you enjoyed!
Hi Rachel, I loved this fun day at the doll shop. Even though I've been doing dolls since I was given my first antique doll at the age of eleven, I learned something today from your wealth of information! I have a really great old peddlar doll with a huge huge basket of wares. Actually, she is wearing her wares in pockets all over the front and back of her generous skirt. You said " the bigger the basket of wares, the more expensive the doll," which I learned today from you. It makes sense too, because she has everything from dollies to needles! Much love and thanks, Linda M. xoxo
PS I can't wait for your next video. It doesn't even matter about what- It's just so nice to have a wonderful doll friend like you. Thank you, Rachel.
Wow, your peddler doll sounds like a real treasure trove of delights! 🎀 I'm thrilled to hear you picked up a new tidbit from our day at the shop. It sounds like your doll is a show-stopper with all those hidden gems in her skirt! Thank you so much for sharing your own doll journey and for your lovely words.
Sending doll-sized hugs your way! 🤗
Much love,
Rachel xoxo
Oh, you just made my day! 😊 Knowing that you're excited for the next video is the best kind of motivation. Having a doll friend like you makes this all the more special.
See you in the next video!
With doll-ightful love,
Rachel 🎀💕
Love the doll world and your videos!
Thank you so much!
I always LOVE all your videos, please keep making them. ❤
Thanks for the love and support! No worries, we've got plenty more videos in the pipeline. So glad you're enjoying them!
Thank you Rachel, Great information. I was especially interested in the paper mache examples you showed. I have my mother's paper mache girl doll in her original outfit. She has a very well made cloth body and is about 23" high. I'm so glad she has survived all these years. Thanks again!
Thanks for the love! So cool you have your mom's paper mache doll. Those dolls are like time capsules, aren't they?
Hurray!
Very good. Thank you
Thank you Rachel, I learnt a lot from you!
You're so welcome!
This is an awesome video. Thank you for taking the time to go over the different materials. I learned a lot.
Glad it was helpful!
Really enjoyed this video, thank you for sharing this section of history on doll.❤
I'm so glad you enjoyed the historical deep-dive into the world of dolls! ❤️ Knowing that you appreciated it makes creating these videos even more rewarding.
Stay tuned for more exciting journeys through doll history!
Warm wishes,
Rachel 🎀✨
Great video! Really enjoyed it!!
I collect bjd, but have a few bisque dolls and have been repainting story book dolls that are in rough shape... I'm finding myself really interested in the paper mache dolls and the china dolls. I'll have to keep an eye out for those from now on.
Love seeing your shop and learning about historical dolls. It's funny how my interests and taste in dolls is changing from fashion dolls to historical type dolls. 😮. Weird...lol!
I, too, miss my mom, and wish I had spent more time learning from her. We're so involved with ourselves as young adults. So now I seem to appreciate the elders I come across more than ever. Cheers, mama!!!
Thank you for sharing your journey with us! It's fascinating how our interests in dolls can evolve over time, from fashion dolls to historical ones. Exploring new types of dolls like paper mache and china dolls sounds like an exciting adventure. It's heartwarming to hear that our shop and videos have been a source of inspiration for you.
Your reflections on missing your mom and cherishing the wisdom of elders resonate deeply. It's a reminder to treasure every moment and the lessons passed down from generation to generation. Cheers to our mothers and the love and knowledge they imparted! Sending you warmth and encouragement on your doll collecting journey. 🌟💕
Your doll's store is "The Heaven" for me ❤❤❤❤

Loved this video! Thank you!
You are so welcome!
love, love, love this video..... wish also to see more how your little baby-girl is growing .... thanks for all of your hard work
Thanks a bunch for the love! So glad you're enjoying the videos. And yep, our little one is growing fast-maybe she'll make a cameo in a future video 😉. Thanks for watching and for the kind words!
Best,
Rachel
Thank you for the wonderful informative video. I will pass it on to my doll club.😊
Glad it was helpful!
As a beginner doll collector, these are SO helpful! I mostly collect Disney fairy dolls but I love antique dolls as well, especially ones with big poofy dresses lol
Glad it was helpful!
Really enjoyed this, learning so much about dolls -- Thank you!!
You are so welcome!
Great video.
Love this type of video! Beautiful dolls! I need the sticker that says it's not hoarding if its dolls!!!😁😊😍
Haha, you're so right-when it comes to dolls, it's never hoarding, it's collecting! 😂 Glad you loved the video and the dolls.
Gosh. I'm on here because I like Shirley Temple! I think you're a Doll! Thanks!
Aw, thank you so much! Shirley Temple has a timeless charm that brings so much joy. Thrilled you're a fan too! 🌟💕
wonderful!
Thank you so much for the information ❤❤❤❤
You are so welcome!
Really interesting video.
Sooo interesting!! Love to see all kinds of dolls. I would love a vídeo with character dolls, Bru, Jumeau ...thank you Rachel 👌💫❤️
Oh, I'm thrilled you found it interesting! Character dolls, Bru, and Jumeau are all absolute gems in the doll world. I'll definitely keep your request in mind for future videos. Stay tuned and thanks for the love! 💫❤️🎉
This video was so great! I loved seeing your examples. I'd sort of absorbed some knowledge about antique dolls over time, but it was really nice to see things laid out the way you did. I love them all but I think my favorite are the cloth dolls, but I loved seeing your favorites in every style! I especially loved the one whose eyes open and close, how cool!
The gorgeous glossy China doll @ 27:00 minutes in. Wow! She was amazing. She instantly reminded me of how I imagined the China doll in one of my favorite books growing up - The Doll People by Ann M. Martin and Laura Godwin.
If you're making this a series, I would love to learn more about cloth dolls and "soft sculpture" dolls, like the early Cabbage Patch dolls. I inherited some beautiful cloth dolls, some made by modern native american artisans.
Oh, I'm thrilled to hear you enjoyed the video and found it informative! Cloth dolls have a certain warmth to them, don't they? 🤗 And yes, dolls with opening and closing eyes have that extra bit of magic!
That China doll does have a captivating allure! I'm so glad she reminded you of a cherished childhood book. 📚
I love your suggestion about diving deeper into cloth dolls and "soft sculpture" dolls. Your inherited pieces sound absolutely fascinating and rich in story. Consider it added to the video queue!
Stay tuned for more doll fun,
Rachel 🎀💫
Oh my but this was a wonderful video. I learned so many basic things about the different dolls. Very helpful in trying to identify what type of doll we are looking at. I love discovering things I do not know and I am always willing to learn. I say yes to more videos. So excited at the title, Doll Collecting 101. Please continue to make more videos to add to your classes. You are now an official teacher of dolls. Thank you Professor Rachel.
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm thrilled to hear that you found the video helpful and informative. I'm delighted to be able to share my knowledge and passion for dolls with you. Your enthusiasm for learning and discovering new things is wonderful, and I'm excited to continue creating more videos in the Doll Collecting 101 series. Your support and encouragement mean a lot, and I'm honored to be your "Professor Rachel" in the world of dolls. Thank you for being a part of this journey!
Thank you so much for this ! I love your dolls, but I also love your attitude ! How does one tell an antique china head from a modern one ? I never knew the secret. Thanks for all you do for the doll community ! You are a treasure !
Aw, thank you for the kind words! To spot an antique china head doll from a modern one, look for signs of age like crazing, wear, and sometimes even a softer painting style. Modern ones often have brighter, bolder features and feel "too perfect." Hope that helps! So glad you're a part of our fabulous doll community! 🌟💖🎉
@@RachelHoffmanDolls thanks so much
19:16 my eyes teared up laughing when you were talking about her, she has been through a lot 😂 and still so sweet.
Haha, sounds like she's a real survivor with a heart of gold! Glad the story could bring you some laughter and maybe a happy tear or two. 😂💖
So pretty ❤😊🎉
I really enjoyed this video. So interesting ❤️
Thank you so much!
As bonecas antigas são as que mais amo❤
Thank you Rachel for the very informative video on the types of dolls from antiques to modern. I have books in my bookcase from past years but seeing you explain & show each type of doll at the same time is much more interesting. My favorite are the hard plastic from the 1950's - 1960's.
Oh, I'm so glad you enjoyed the video, and how awesome that you have a soft spot for hard plastic dolls from the 1950s-60s! There's something so charming about that era, isn't there? Stay tuned for more fun and informative content! 😊🎀
Your mother had such a good eye!
She had the best eye for shopping, you are right. I sure miss her.
@@RachelHoffmanDolls I understand…I really miss my father.
Great video so interesting. 🙏💙😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
Oh my goodness that raggedy ann dolls i have my raggedy ann doll right next to me right now wow haha😊
Thank you for a very informative video. I did not know that Ellowyne was hard plastic and vinyl and that I could pierce her ears with a thumb tack!
You're very welcome! I'm thrilled you found the Ellowyne info useful. Isn't it neat to discover new things about our doll friends? Now you can give Ellowyne some stylish ear bling with that thumb tack trick! 🌟👂💎
Happy Doll-ing,
Rachel 🎀😊
Very interesting explanation mostly for those new at collecting dolls. ❤
Great video😃! i learned so much!!!
I myself collect all kinds of dolls and have two beautiful porcelain/composit Ashton Drake dolls I also have a porcelain bride doll but I don't know who made it, it's not old but it's big and incredibly beautifully painted on the face, I'll have to see if I can find some more info
I love watching your videos and I always learn something new
I look forward to more of the same kind
LOL Klaus
Rachel, I learned so much from this video🤗🤗 and I really ENJOYED THIS VIDEO SO MUCH💖💖💖💖💖!!! With my modest Doll collection, I never thought about what they were made of, but they are all vintage Dolls, except my Mom's Bridal Doll from the 1950s😢😢😢 which with profound sadness😪😢😢, got lost in my recent moving process on Aug. 7th😢😢😢. I have never really thought of what my Dolls were made of, except for my Cloth Dolls which are my Raggedy Andy❤❤ and my Holly Hobbie Doll💙💙!! I would say that my favorite Doll materials from your videos and from your and your Mom's Collection as much as from Johnathan Green's collection are: Cloth Dolls like Raggedy Ann❤❤ and Raggedy Andy Dolls❤❤ from all time periods, ❤💚Diana Vining's modern cloth Christmas Doll❤💚, Bisque, like the French Jumeau Dolls❤❤❤, hard plastic like all of your Mom's stunningly gorgeous hard plastic Madame Alexander Dolls❤❤❤❤, Vinyl Dolls like Ruby Red's Doll Minnie which has a very soft pretty face look with her cute Bantu curls❤❤, and also a mixture of hard plastic with vinyl like Robert Tonner's Ellowyne Wilde Dolls💖💖💖😼😼!! And I so LOVE Barbie Dolls💖💖💖💖💖 and I was wondering, if some of the Barbie Dolls from the 70s and 80s were made of a combo of hard plastic as well as vinyl🤔🤔? And Although I am not into Wax Dolls, @ 9:55 I so LOVED that Baby Wax Doll with her beautiful glowing skin, eyes, and dress with bonnet 💙💙💙💙💙!!! Rachel, I have learned so much and I really am looking forward to seeing your next video, which I am slowly catching up!!! Thank you so much for this material and history of materials lessons on the Dolls😃😃💖💖💖💖💖!!!
Oh wow, your enthusiasm is just so contagious! 🌟 I'm thrilled to hear you're diving deep into the fascinating world of doll materials. So sorry to hear about your mom's bridal doll; that's a tough loss. 😢 But it sounds like you have a wonderful variety in your collection that you cherish. Yes, Barbies from the 70s and 80s are generally made of vinyl, but it can feel like a mix due to various production methods. Isn't that wax baby just a charmer? So glad you loved her! Thank you for keeping up with the videos and for being such a fabulous part of our doll-loving community. Can't wait to share more with you! 💖🎉🤗
Really loved the video! I am hoping on a tour of the modern dolls, bc they don't show up much. Also, do you have any plaster/uncommon material dolls?
🙋♀️❤ loved this video! Nice to see you relax a little and just play dolls with us! Big Welcome to your brother!
So glad you enjoyed the video! It's always fun to just kick back and play dolls, right? And my brother says thanks for the warm welcome! 😊
Cheers,
Rachel
I loved this. Thankyou so much Rachel. I've always adored dolls but was really discouraged after a certain age by people because they said dolls are for children. I was lucky enough to have 4 beautiful children and decided then that I wasn't going to stop them from enjoying whatever they wanted. My son still has all of his dolls, and then my daughters went through their stages but my youngest, who is 20, is as passionate about dolls as i am. I can't afford much so i find damaged dolls that people want to just about give away and i fix/restore them. I've learnt so much from Linda. Now i have 2 K✡️R dolls that need a lot of work. The large doll has a broken head so I'm going to attempt to sculpt the missing parts with fine milliput, but the medium girl just needs a new wig and clothes. I have the original outfit but the silk material is falling apart, so I'll make a copy. Hugs from Australia 😊 xx
I'm so thrilled to hear that you're sharing the love of dolls with your family, especially your youngest! It's wonderful that you're giving new life to dolls that others might overlook. Sounds like a labor of love! Keep doing what you're doing, and best of luck with those K✡️R doll restorations. Hugs right back from the VDC Team! 🤗🌈💕
Hi Rachel, I absolutely loved this video. It was so informative. I have collected all types of dolls 4 a long time, and it's nice to have found a group of people (friends)who enjoy dolls. Thank you.
Ps. My kids think I'm nuts. Lol.
Thank you for the kind words! It's always great to connect with fellow doll lovers. And don't worry about the kids thinking you're nuts-collecting dolls is a passion and it's awesome that you've found a community that gets it. Glad you're enjoying the videos!
Hello Rachel, will you be getting another Doll restoration expert to assist with your new arrivals?
The video was interesting. You & your brother did a fine job. I must admit I’m very jealous of the dolls in your emporium. Thank you for the tour!
Thanks for the kind words and for enjoying the tour! We're definitely considering bringing in more expertise for restorations. Stay tuned, and who knows, maybe you'll see even more dolls to be jealous of soon! 😉
Just find your channer . Very interesting 😊. I ve started collect dolls maybe 1 year ago . Before i ve collected and still do just porcelain like Sevres , Niderviller, Luneville, Chantilly ect ... french old manufacturers of 18th century. But i felt i miss sth . Aaand this is ...dolls ! Hello from France 🤗
Bonjour from Colorado! 🌄
Wow, your collection sounds très chic with all those exquisite French porcelain pieces! 🇫🇷 Transitioning into dolls adds a little sprinkle of joy, doesn't it? So glad you found our channel and joined our doll-loving community. Bienvenue! 🎀
Can't wait to share more doll magic with you!
A bientôt,
Rachel 🌟🤗
Interesting
❤Благодарю. За. Обзор. Очень. Интересно
Hi Rachel I love your videos and work! You inspired me to collect one of my favorite dolls, have you seen the Gorham Valentine ladies dolls by Pamela Valentine?? If you like I can send you some pics 🥰
Rachel, I also like to see Antique Dolls in original condition but, when should a collector consider restoration? Thank you so much!😊
Great question! 🌟 When it comes to restoring antique dolls, it's often a personal choice. Some collectors like to keep things as-is to preserve the doll's "life story." However, restoration might be a good idea if there's damage that could worsen over time. Just make sure to consult with a trusted expert so the doll retains as much of its original charm as possible. Happy collecting! 🎀💕
I have a lot of things that I am going to get to, Some day Love this I think you say My favorite as much as I do
It's great to hear that you have a lot of exciting projects and plans! And yes, "My favorite" is a phrase that often finds its way into my conversations. It's wonderful to know we share that sentiment! If you ever want to discuss those projects or anything else, feel free to reach out. Best of luck with everything you're working on!
@@RachelHoffmanDolls you are an inspiration
I get such a kick out of the hairdos on some of the paper mache dolls. They put beehives to shame! I don’t think the wax over paper mache is scary…just well loved and possibly carried around by her hair, which children do to this day. I’m amazed they survived in such good shape. I also love cloth dolls…I used to make them for various children. I made my first one, a Raggedy Anne, at 16 for my baby sister…she’s quite large. I had never put yarn through heavy cotton canvas and hate wearing a thimble, so there are a few drops of blood under her hair, lol. She’s almost 60 years old. I collect adult and little girl composition dolls and hard plastic; their faces are so beautiful. Madame A and Effanbee are my favorites.
Oh, the towering hairstyles on those paper mache dolls are truly a spectacle, aren't they? 😄 Your story about making cloth dolls, especially that treasured Raggedy Anne, is just wonderful! Ah, the joys and perils of handmade crafts, right? Madame A and Effanbee have such timeless beauty, it's easy to see why they're your faves. Thanks for sharing your doll-loving journey with us!
I've recently bought two dolls at an estate sale. I don't buy dolls nor do I collect them. However these two got my attention. One is the size of a small child it's heavy and made of porcelain l was told that it was made by a famous doll maker. But the other one is really old it's smaller in size I think it's made of wood inside. And the exterior reminds me of celluloid. I've only seen this type of doll in museums and antique shops. Have no idea what the value is. I'm going to sell them. But I'd like a fair price.
I did like it when you said, if it’s Dolls it’s not hoarding. This was really informative. I was surprised in many ways. I had a question when you showed the Tonner doll. I got an older Grace doll brand new in the box with the plastic still on her face/hair and arms. She was the one in the aqua gown and black hair. I think she is Grace Deluxe. I looked her up on your website and their is a slight difference, not really too noticeable, in the skin tone of her vinyl face verses her hard body. Is that a normal thing. I think she was an early one.
Hi there,
I'm glad you found the video informative and love that my "Dolls = Not Hoarding" motto resonated with you! 😄
Great question about the Grace Deluxe doll! It's not uncommon for there to be slight variations in skin tone between the vinyl face and hard body, especially in older models. Factors like manufacturing and age can play into that. So, yes, it's generally considered normal.
Hope that clears things up! Can't wait to chat dolls with you again soon!
Dolly Cheers,
Rachel 🎀🌟
Im not a fan of antique dolls, they creep me out. I prefer vintage dolls (like 50s-00s dolls) but i loved this video and its very interesting
❤❤❤
My doll has a Armande Marseille head,and a body of 2 Primark pillowslips. I know because I made it.
Poupée a lencienne jen ai eu une il a 65 ans deja je lai malheureusement perdu de vu ou 🤔 cet mes préférés. Tres belles poupée. ❤️❤️❤️
It isn't easy having family and people opposite who have a minimalism feng shui belief of less is more. I prefer more is more people and love watching shows where people have collections or even the pawn shop show just to see what interesting things people bring in. I think maximalism style needs more exposure. Not all people want to live in a throw away society.
I totally get where you're coming from! There's something so special about being surrounded by things that bring joy and tell a story, right? Maximalism definitely has its own kind of beauty. And who doesn't love discovering unique treasures on pawn shop shows? 🤩
@@RachelHoffmanDolls ♥️
This is a GREAT video! Enjoyed it so much! I have a question - maybe a little bit off of the subject, but I don't know where to ask this. Do the shoes that fit the Tonner Grace doll also fit the 16" Tonner Tyler Wentworth doll? Are any of the clothes/shoes interchangeable between the dolls? Thank you! :)
Thanks for the awesome comment! Great question about the Tonner dolls. The shoes for Grace are actually a bit larger, as Grace has a bigger foot compared to the 16" Tyler Wentworth doll. Some clothes might be interchangeable, but the fit could be different. Hope this helps!
@@RachelHoffmanDolls Yes, that helps! Thank you! I really appreciate it.
I did not know cellioid was flammable ahhh so does that cause issues with shipping etc. hope someone can answer this v
Good afternoon Rachel u still doing a doll show
Hi! Can you clarify what you mean by this? Is this a specific doll show or is this in reference to my channel content?
🥰👍👏
I have a Rollison doll, made by Utley Doll Company. I would like to know what is inside this doll , there must be one left falling apart to autopsy . She is so heavy, I think more than a new born. I feels like her middle is hard plaster. I think I have a picture in this computer.
I guess we cannot put up pictures here
Wow, a Rollison doll from Utley Doll Company-that's quite a unique find! I get why you're curious about what's inside. Sometimes these older dolls are filled with all sorts of materials. If we come across one that's falling apart, we'll definitely consider doing a 'doll autopsy' to see what's inside. Thanks for sharing, and I'd love to see that picture if you find it!
Best,
Rachel
I am making Raggedy horse doll just for my slafe because of raggedy Ann dolls made get to this thing and now I am trap making different raggedy horse doll ya
Do the old dolls have human hair?
Some do, if it’s an antique wig, most likely. They also have mohair wigs.
Thanks! @@RachelHoffmanDolls
