I LOVED paper dolls. We called them "cut outs". Those and Colorforms were my favorite..oh and Jacks too.

I went to the website to check out the dolls, got sidetracked to the totes at half price, and ended up ordering several for gifts...including to me, of course.

Thanks for the info!

I have over 180 paper dolls from the late 40's and early 50's. They were printed in the Sunday paper in Indpls and I cut them out, named them and designed additional clothes for them. They were so much fun to collect and an important part of my childhood.

I was a very sickly child and I can remember spending many hours in bed playing with my paper dolls.

Thanks for the link!

Oh yes!! I finally parted with the magazines but have kept all the paper dolls from them. Have no idea what I'll do with them but just love to look at them. Maybe save them til my little bbf next door gets old enough for them.
