Description
My mother-in-law, who is 88 years old was given these dolls on her 4th birthday. They were packed away in the old barn and forgotten many years ago. Time and weather had taken their toll, leaving them as you see here. I felt badly finding them in this state and wanted to honor them in these studies. Their hands have snaps on them so they can be snapped together to hold hands, which they have done for 84 years.

Agree Don about the leg...you really feel these two buddies are just hanging out on a lazy summer afternoon. Just so enchanting. I have to say this is a big winner in my book!

Norma, I'm in total agreement with my good friend Diane. It's just a special thing, and your placement in what must be a rough, but wonderful home, and that fantastic window sill make even more so. I really love that leg hanging down like it is. How could you make it anymore natural? f/v

Ohhhh...this is just incredibly wonderful...love the tattered and well loved dolls to the weathered window sill and amazing light. I have voted and saved as a favorite.
