Did I Wish for a Kish?

When I allowed myself to get
very interested in dolls, again,
I was enchanted by the work
of Helen Kish.

A little magazine shopping
showed me that "Kishies"
would be out of my line
for awhile.

Now, I could hardly believe
what I found in a local thrift
store for one dollar, lately.

American Girl (read "Mattel")
had a line called
"Girls of Many Lands,"
designed by Kish.
This one is Chou Spring Pearl,
and was wearing a
Barbie looking dress.
Isn't this fun?!  :)

A Scarlett Reverie

If I have never mentioned Raphael's blog before,

I have been remiss.

If you have not seen this blog

you are in for a treat, IMO.

Katrina

Dolls of America's Colonial Heritage
collection.

Do you, like me, sometimes
find yourself attracted to a doll
that is not your usual "type?"
