Composition Dolls - "Shirley"

shirley Shirley is another pot doll. Dating from the 1940s, she is 24" high, and was possibly made by the firm of F Popper. Her skin has a brownish tinge, as do many of the pot dolls from this era. Shirley still has her original blonde mohair wig. She wears a rose-sprigged cotton dress.
