11 ½-inches in height, this lady has dark
sleeves under her fancier tan outfit. A
band of flashy brown and white polka
dot patterned ribbon decorates her shawl
from front to back. The tan flannel-like
material matches that used for her skirt.
Right: Twelve-inches tall-this lady wears a
fancier costume, very similar in style to the
lady in tan with the brown and white polkadot shawl. Probably a holiday dress, the tan
skirt is also flannel. The shawl is light blue
flannel as is the apron. Red ribbon is sewn
onto the shawl which crosses over in front.
She wears a white linen blouse under her
wrap. She has black stockings and shoes
with metal buckles. author's collection
Far right: An unusual find is this
fisherwoman with a wisk-broom body.
Nine-inches tall, her hat is woven instead
of lace. She has no arms - they are empty
sleeves sewn across her front. Her bald
head shoulder head has painted features.
