21-inch clay and cloth doll |
Found on Etsy while looking for another type doll as a reference for someone, I was intrigued by this 21-inch doll that the seller described as being made of solid plaster. Because of her charming face, I placed the doll into my cart and completed the purchase.
This is the only picture I have of my paternal grandmother, Mollie Lewis, who died when my father was three. |
Mollie's face can be seen better in this close-up photograph. |
Mollie's sculpted hair from the back can be seen in this photograph. |
She wears molded-on, mock-lace-up black boots
Mollie is marked "ETG © VT" within a circle with an "M" to the right of the circled letters. Undated, Mollie was fashioned after dolls from the late-1800s/early-1900s. She was probably made during the 1980s.
