mAn DoLLs 1930 to 1950

T

he man dolls are Barbara's favorite! They are
made of palmetto fiber and like the lady dolls,
they sometimes have yarn hair. Usually, though,
they have black cloth on their heads to represent
hair. Some of the man dolls wear turbans. Most
of the time the man dolls are dressed in the
traditional "big shirts" and some are dressed in
long pants. The "big shirts" are made of bands of
material with strips of patchwork. After 1950, the
Seminoles started to use rick rack trim on the dolls.
However, a few dolls from the late 1940's can also
be found with rick rack trim.

Seminole Indian dolls with rick rack sewn on their clothes
appeared after 1950.

SpeciALties

T

his section of the display included a doll and
a book entitled, "Legends of the Seminoles,"
by Betty Mae Tiger Jumper. She was the first
Florida Seminole to learn to read and write
English, the first to graduate from high school
and nursing school and the first and only female
chief of the Seminole Tribe of Florida. The section
also included a doll made for Deaconess Harriet
Bedell in 1935, with a book about the deaconess
entitled, "Angel of the Swamp." She lived among
and worked with the Seminole Indians to help
them improve their quality of life by reviving
their doll-making and basket-weaving skills.
The deaconess managed the sale of the dolls and
baskets through the Episcopalian Glade Cross
Mission located in Everglades City. She was very
meticulous about the quality and the authenticity
of the items being sold.

Seminole Indian man dolls are
usually dressed in the traditional
"big shirts."
These Seminole Indian lady dolls
represent the period between 1940
and 1950.
