Glorious and beautiful day to you!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To paraphrase Psalm 118:24</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is the day the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And I hope you will too.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sometimes it's so easy to get bogged down in the stuff of life; that we loose track of what's truly important. I find it better to think on things I can be grateful for instead of thinking on things I have no control over. So, I choose to trust in the Lord and give Him praise for everything, for I know He can work all things to my good - hallelujah! Romans 8:28</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have been so blessed over the years to have add some truly lovely antique paper dolls to my collection and I though I'd bless you guys too by posting some fun WW1 paper dolls from it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
These are the three paper dolls I'll be sharing with you today.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope you enjoy them and that they bring some joy to your day! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Please see my instructions on the sidebar on how best to save the higher resolution image of each to your computer in case you want to print and use the dolls.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Most of my paper doll collection is from late 1800s and early 1900s; and I have a special affection for newspaper and magazine paper dolls from that time frame. These paper dolls appeared in the women's magazine Pictorial Review in 1918.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I remember commercials of the Campbell's Soup Kids from my childhood; so once I discovered these early Dolly Dingle Dolls I had to add some to my collection just for the giggles of it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I soon realized that I could purchase original pre-1930's magazine pages of them, for a few dollars a piece; however some of the rarer ones I was having to pay $20-30 to get. My Dolly Dingle paper doll collection consists of around 20 pages but I was only willing to super splurge on only a handful of the rarer ones like Dolly's Mother and Father.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I don't know what kind of money this series of 1918 WW1 dolls currently cost, but these are still some of my favorites and I don't regret the expense or time it took to get all three.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Most Dolly Dingle paper dolls are of Dolly and or Friends with their cute round faces and chubby cheeks. Like this June 1918 page from Pictorial Review Magazine.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
One of the things I enjoy about this page is that you have Dolly Dingle and a dress for her but you also have her paper dolls and it's a WW1 Wedding. You have the dashing soldier husband and the bride with her wonderful wedding wardrobe. It's so Downton Abbey!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I believe I paid $8-$10 for this page </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The artist of Dolly Dingle and the Campbell's Soup Kids was Grace Drayton (1878-1936)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She started with the Campbell's Soup Kids in 1904 and they ran strong for decades, even after her death in 1936. You still see them occasionally from time to time.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are two examples. I found them in my 1919 Delineator Magazine's</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Check out some of the soup options they had: </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Julienne, Mock Turtle, Mulligatawny, Mutton, Oxtail & Printanier </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I miss my Tomato-Beef Noodle O's - I think they removed it in the 1980's</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think Carnation breakfast squares disappeared around the same time. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oooooo what yummy memories those both bring back.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I think most people are familiar with images of the Campbell's Soup Kids but fewer are aware that the artist also had a paper doll series under the name of Dolly Dingle.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Grace's Dolly Dingle Paper Doll series became a regular in in the Pictorial Review Magazine from 1913 to 1933</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Pictorial Review Magazine like many women's magazines of it's day were large oversized productions, similar in size to a half folded newspaper or of the old Life Magazines. And many from this time period included a page with a paper doll or paper toy of some kind. I enjoy collecting them. Sometimes I have to purchase the entire magazine to get the doll but since I enjoy the fashions and ads of the day and sometimes the articles, I don't mind so much. - grins</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've reduced the size of the actual pages
I've posted to make it easier for anyone who wants to print and play
with the paper doll pages - just in case anyone was wondering.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have instructions on how to save and print the higher resolution size of these images on my sidebar.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
This next Paper Doll is one of my all time favorite finds</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Dolly Dingle's Mother and her WW1 Nurse Uniform </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She appeared in the August 1918 issue of Pictorial Review</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Dolly Dingle's Mother and the next one of her Father caused me to go into a bidding war with several other people. I probably paid way to much for each of these, but back when I was bidding for them, you just did not see either one come up for sale very often.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I believe I paid the low $20's for one and the high $20s for the other.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
At that time you could usually buy the entire magazine issue for those prices; however I was not able to locate either the July or August 1918 issue with the paper doll page still in the magazine after years of looking so I went for it on these two pages. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Tip - Before you bid or purchase a vintage magazine online for the paper
doll or toy, ask the seller to verify that page is still in the
magazine and request a photo of it to show condition. I've
encountered magazines where the page is missing, torn or in very bad
condition. Also verify they will mail the magazine flat and not be
folding it into an envelope - yup, I've had that happen too. An entire
magazine with amazing images went from treasure to trash by them doing
that. The pages were full of folds, wrinkles, creases and ripples - it was so sad to see. The magazine survived 100 years of who knows what before it was folded because the seller did not have a larger envelope on hand.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I appreciate the look of the Mother and Father pages and am glad they don't have the same round chubby features the rest of the Dolly Dingle series has. I think this elegant and reserved look of the patriotic war effort is more respectful.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Father appeared in the July 1918 issue of Pictorial Review.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He was created with two separate uniforms. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One for Army and one for Navy. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also think it's interesting that he is depicted with a cigarette in his hand. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Smoking did not have the same stigma it does today, nor was the public as informed about the health dangers of the habit.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As we well know - oh how the time have changed.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thanks for joining me in a step back in time to 1918. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope you enjoyed seeing these lovely old gems.</div>

Hi All - I know it's been years since my last post but as the country has been in lock down over Covid-19 I've finally had some time to organize some of my collectibles and though it would be a good time to share images from a collection of 1920's teacher magazines I have in my collection.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Many parents are currently having to oversee their children's education from home while schools are closed due to the Corona Virus Pandemic of 2020. I remembered having purchased a group of antique teachers magazines; so I thought it would be fun to share some snippets from them in several blog posts. While flipping through the first issue I was reminded about many truths regarding our country and of the values we held as a county 100 years ago. Consider as you look at and read the articles from this magazine that the world was only a handful of years out of WWI and our constitution had just given women the right to vote two years earlier in 1920. We have overcome so many things through the years as women and as Americans and what we are experiencing with Covid-19 will also one day be another thing we have conquered.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am a woman of faith and put my full trust in my Lord Jesus Christ.<br />
Going forward I will be including scripture that's on my heart that day.<br />
My focus going forward is to share vintage images and items you can enjoy and create with, as well as the spiritual things that are currently on my heart. My hope is you will find my pages enjoyable, entertaining and inspirational. If you don't appreciate the scriptural content, I won't apologize for it, you are free to brows elsewhere. As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. - Joshua 24:15 </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The world around us may change, our families, jobs, technology, the way we live and do things may change but I have comfort that the Word of God does not change and never will change. It is constant, a root and anchor to me. My faith in His Word keeps me strong and sees me through each and every day, it is a blessing and gives hope. I am thankful for it and want to share my thanks for it.</div>
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Now let's step back in time... </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
20 cents a copy and $2.00 for a yearly subscription</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm sure many a rural teacher found these magazines helpful with lesson plans and ideas.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My Great Grandmother was born in 1899 and was a rural school teacher before she married. She told me about driving a pony cart to and from school as a little girl, this magazine is most likely within a few years of when she taught school herself, so it really makes me smile to flip through it's pages.</div>

I thought you might like to see the index page to get an idea of what each issue contained. As with most magazines it had a good portion of advertisements and there are many ideas for lessons, like history, mathematics, geography, music and more. This issue had 96 pages and it is a large magazine, similar in size to old LIFE magazines, I've adjusted the page size of my scans to be more in line with our standard 8 1/2 x 11. I won't be showing all the pages in this post, just some items I found interesting and then the fun pages, which I think you guys will enjoy best.<br />

There are several pages that contain items like this one that can be cut out and used as a classroom poster. This was before the time of photocopiers and even mimeograph machines. Schoolteachers did not make a lot of money so the money they spent needed to go far. One of the advantages of subscribing to this publication was that it provided items that could be used to decorate the classroom.</div>

Here is a smaller example they list as a coloring card that the students can use as a template to trace and color. I'm not sure how many friends would appreciate getting this quote as a "gift". </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The sentiment is valid, We do associate time with money and no one likes to waste either.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can see teaching children the importance of it, I just find it an odd quote for gifting purposes; however life was viewed differently in 1922 and maybe such a reminder was the norm.<br />

Here is one example of a cutting border they include in their magazines. It has the look of a scarab beetle to me. Egyptian themes were popular at this time so that is a good possibility of choice here. This issue has 2 different cutting borders printed in this issue. Since I scanned the pages to be in line with standard paper sizes of 8 1/2 x 11; I wanted to include the cutting pattern at the correct size since the instructions give specific paper measurements for the pattern to work correctly.</div>

Once again this cutting pattern is the actual size from the magazine so that it works correctly with the measurements and instructions listed. You can make the pattern whatever size you like just make sure you fold your paper accordion style within the dotted lines and you should get the desired result.</div>

<u><b>FYI - Saving and Printing</b></u></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
See my instructions in the sidebar for how to save and print images from my blog.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To get full size images you must click on the image so it opens in anther screen and then save from there if you try and right click and save directly from this screen you will be getting much smaller image size and resolution.<br />

I'm a collector of antique paper dolls and toys. I originally purchased this page as a one page paper toy, and it's what introduced me to the Normal Instructor and Primary Plans Magazines. Years ago I came upon a lot of 17 magazines that in total cost less than I paid for this one page. I quickly purchased them and was thrilled to discover most issue contained a paper doll pattern and various other fun graphics.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Most of the magazines have a jointed paper doll pattern in them - I was thrilled to get these, since jointed paper dolls are one of the things I collect. You can print this doll, color her by hand, cut and assemble or you can get more creative. If you print it on various colors of cardstock you can cut past and layer. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For Example: Print one each of Tan, Brown, and Blue.<br />
Cut all the parts from Tan (this is your base).<br />
Brown - cut hair, cuff, collar, belt, shoes with bows.<br />
Blue cut full dress with collar, arms with cuffs, but no hand and<br />
only the back paw and rumpus of the cat, bows for shoes.<br />
Layering the colors will give your doll a bit of dimension and added interest. You are working from underneath to top, so from skin up to cuffs, collar and bows on shoes.<br />
You can use pattern paper or more than three colors. I just used that for an example.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Tip - When you cut, leave all the outlines showing for items that are the top most layer (hair, cuffs, collar, shoe bows... it gives a nice finishing effect. I use brads to join my doll parts but I've purchased antique paper dolls that were put together with button and string and in some cases knotted twine front and back. Get creative or just glue the parts in the pose you want her to stay in.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Also you can shade or color in for added interest, eye-shadow, bronzer and blush on q-tips, cotton balls work in a pinch. Expired powdered cosmetics make a good substitute for crafting pastel chalks.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is a larger view of the finished doll.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The cat is on the first Tan cardstock layer, she's been colored with eye-shadow.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I cut around the kitty a bit so I could tuck the blue sleeve and brown cuff layer under her a bit. That way the cat's hindquarters "sit" over the arm while the front part of the cat remains behind the girl's hand. It helps if you don't cut all the cat away when cutting the blue layer of that arm.</div>

This September 1922 Issue would have been the beginning of a new school year; and with so many families now homeschooling their children due to Covid-19, this seems a good item to include here.</div>

This page finishes the story of the Plymouth Girl.<br />
I was curious to see what actually happened to Ellen and to see if we know more about her history now than the 1922 article stated. It's a sad story what happened to Ellen and her siblings. Sadly she did not survive the first winter and there is a book that's been written about the children's story.<br />

I own an antique pair of boots similar to these and what's most shocking is how very narrow they are through the foot and ankle.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One of the things I like best when looking through vintage magazines are checking out the fashions. What I find most interesting in these teacher magazines is the compromise between true fashion of the day and fashion for this profession. This was a time where a woman's reputation was her lively-hood and in no way could she be very flashy. A more conservative eye to fashion was required and in keeping with the schoolmarm look.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Schoolmarm: <span class="ILfuVd"><span class="e24Kjd">1: a woman who is a schoolteacher especially in a rural or small-town school. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="ILfuVd"><span class="e24Kjd">2: a person who exhibits characteristics attributed to schoolteachers </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="ILfuVd"><span class="e24Kjd">(such as strict adherence to arbitrary rules)</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="ILfuVd"><span class="e24Kjd">If a lady was too stylish she could be considered "fast" and a bad moral influence to the students and the community. Loss of reputation in this profession would cause a woman to quickly loose her posting and any hope of recommendation from her employer for another job as a teacher.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="ILfuVd"><span class="e24Kjd"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="ILfuVd"><span class="e24Kjd">Teachers were not highly paid, so it must have been an interesting line to navigate; as to appear tidy and professional without looking dowdy or cheap. I'm sure many a young teacher wished to dress smartly without appearing flashy or loose.</span></span></div>

<span class="ILfuVd"><span class="e24Kjd">This back page advertisement on the magazine shows a catalog offering fashions at reasonable prices. Considering there are 312 pages of fashion to choose from there was probably a wide variety of options to choose from. I'm guessing the closer to large cities a teacher taught in, she would be able to be more fashionable than would be acceptable in more rural settings.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="ILfuVd"><span class="e24Kjd"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="ILfuVd"><span class="e24Kjd">I have several fashion magazines from this time period but it would be interesting to get a catalogue that was geared toward teachers like this one from Philipsborn's. I might browse around and see if I can purchase a vintage Philipsborne's to see what was on offer in it's pages. - grins</span></span></div>

<span class="ILfuVd"><span class="e24Kjd">Now this gem is quite amusing. It's a story advertisement by Franklin Institute. The story is entertaining or it's own; and I'm sure it encouraged a bit of wishful thinking for the young ladies that read it. It also touches base about being fashionable without being dowdy, enticing the reader on educating herself regarding fashion design and millinery as well offering courses in such to advancement. I'm guessing it had a similar wish effect as moving pictures had on young girls wanting to go to Hollywood and become film stars.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
It's a bit difficult to imagine what it was like 100 years ago to be a woman in need of respectable employment. Opportunities were limited and if you had no family or hope of marriage, life must have seemed very challenging, with little hope of improvement. I noticed several advertisements in this issue regarding learning to be a dressmaker or in becoming a typist.</div>

I was shocked to see the ad for the Sexology book but there were several other such listings mixed in on other advertisement pages. They must have found it worth their while to advertise here.<br />

Here are more advertisements</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hair Removal seems to be big, since there is an ad for safety razor & kill the hair root here. Moving Pictures are also, since there are various ads through the magazine regarding the industry in one way or another. This was the 1920's after all, so along with the movies came the cosmetics boom; most of the beauty ads I saw were for hygienic products and skin tonics. My guess is teachers were not the ones buying up all the rouge and powder at this time. And finally here is one of many typewriter ads I found in the pages of this 1922 magazine for rural teachers.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'll end this post with one final page.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The below page on poems caught my eye due to the first one listed.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"A Hundred Years from Now" - Seeing that I'm writing this post in 2020 and this magazine is from 1922 we are so in the 100 years ballpark. I'm pretty sure the writers and readers of this magazine could not image the lives we would be living or the technology our world has access to.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Think how far medical technology and treatments have come in that time yet as the pandemic of Spanish Flu was a recent memory to them; I'm sure they never imagined their ancestors would be fighting a similar epidemic nearly 100 years in the future. We need to give thanks for all we have in this modern age. We need to move forward in hope and with faith that we too will survive as they did.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Fear <u>tolerated</u> is Faith contaminated - For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. (2 Timothy 1:7). I know in whom I believe (2 Timothy 1:2) and that the Name of Jesus is above every other name (Philippians 2:10)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There is authority in the Name of Jesus, so I choose to walk in Faith and not in Fear.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I choose to stand and believe on His Word and to pray a prayer of thanksgiving for bringing us through, stronger and more resilient in every way - physically, spiritually and financially. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can choose what the news reports, what the world says or I can choose what the Word says I am in Christ Jesus... I chose JESUS, I choose to believe what the Word says I can have and what the Word says about who I am in HIM! I confess these truths with my heart and with my mouth.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
This poem A Hundred Years from Now was written by Mary A. Ford</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I don't know the original year written but I do know it was included in a poetry book in 1890.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm not much for poems but the title alone puts much into perspective. If we consider our current words, thoughts and actions, stop - take a minute and wonder what results they will produce and then consider the long term effect... would we say, think or do those things? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As I'm writing this post the Lord has placed these words on my heart. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Truth - These earthly bodies we live in will one day die, very few will see 100 years.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Truth - No matter how much money you have, you can't take it with you.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Truth - Life is more than stuff we acquire. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We all have an eternal future beyond the here and now.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It does not matter if you believe it or not, that won't change the outcome.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There is Truth and there is Fact</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Truth can change a Fact</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but a Fact will never change a Truth.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There is but one Truth - seek the Truth and you will find Life </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What you feed on (listen to, watch and read) is what your thoughts become consumed by.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
First you think it, then you say it, then you do it. That tree bears that same fruit.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If your life is in a mess, start looking at what your thinking and saying. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Stinking thinking does not produce pleasant things and our words become self fulfilling prophesy.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You will say what is in abundance in your heart, your words reflect what you believe in your inner man. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Luke 6:45</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<sup class="versenum"> </sup>A
good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that
which is good; </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart
bringeth forth that which is evil: </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for of <u>the abundance of the heart his
mouth speaketh</u>. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so Whatever your heart is full of is what your going to say.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you have a heart full of goodness you speak accordingly, if not, you won't.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Listen to what your saying, what pops out your mouth under stress before you have a chance to censor yourself... that's really what's in your heart, deep down and it will see the light of day.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As a man thinks in his heart, so is he - Proverbs 23:7</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How do you change that?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You have to change what your feeding on (listening, watching, reading)</div>

<span class="text Rom-10-17" id="en-KJV-28206">It's not a one time "heard that", it's a continual progression of hearing His Word, thinking on it, meditating on it till its a part of you. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="text Rom-10-17" id="en-KJV-28206">Jesus came to fulfill the old covenant, so thank God we are under his grace and by his blood are we saved. Satan does not want you to know your authority as a believer, and instead of fighting him many choose to loom in the darkness where they are kept powerless and of no effect for the Kingdom, waiting on God to move and do something. The truth is God and his army of angles are waiting on us to say his words in Jesus' name so He has something to work with here on this earth. Till Jesus comes back Satan is the god of this world and he's not giving it up till he has to or unless he has no choice. Jesus Christ is the only one who had defeated him so only in the authority of Jesus' name and by the Word of God are we able to fight him effectivly. His final defeat is coming as the day of the Lord approaches but there is power in the name of Jesus and as born again believers we have authority to put down what comes against us in the glorious name of Jesus and to embrace all that the blessings of being a child of God and joint heir with Christ means. (Romans 8:17) . A wake-up call is being rung, it's time for the army of the Lord to come forward, put on the armor of God and when you've done all to stand, stand!.(Ephesian 6:10-19)</span></div>

"If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe
in thine heart that God has raised him from the dead, thou shalt be
saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the
mouth confession is made unto salvation." I do that now. I confess that
Jesus is Lord, and I believe in my heart that God raised Him from the
dead.</i></div>

Hey All - I knows it's been a few months since my last post...<br />
but today I have another vintage toy theater post for you to enjoy.<br />
<br />
I've had this digital adaptation on the back burner for a while and finally<br />
put the finishing touches on it over the weekend.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This time round it's a German Paper Theater by J.F. Schreiber of Esslingen<br />
I really like the fancy elements on theaters like this one.<br />
This Rococo/Late Baroque style Schreiber was listed as No. 400 a&b and is from around 1894.<br />
<br />
Enjoy!</div>

An original vintage sheet came as seen above and had to be cut and assembled to form the </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Theater's Proscenium - that's the fancy outer portion of the stage that frames the performance.<br />
<br />
Many of these toy theater Proscenuim sheets came in "to be assembled" format like shown here.<br />
I'm guessing this was to help reduce the cost of these sheets and made them easier to store since some of the original assembled sizes were of a fair size and printed assembled on one sheet would have made them rather large. <br />

This post is about the Schreiber Rococo No. 400a&b but I wanted to show that sometimes the numbering system these printers used could get a bit confusing when "hunting" or collecting.<br />
Schrieber produced another Proscenuim sheet with a similar number - see below</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Schreiber also made a Paper Theater Sheet No.400c, pictured above - not to be confused with the Rococo No.400 a&b. Even though both theater sheets carry a similar number and both are striking, they are nothing alike. I'd love to one day find out why they were numbered so similarly, so if anyone out there knows - please drop me a line or leave a comment - grins.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Jakob Schreiber (1809-1868) was the founder of the J.F. Schreiber publishing company.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They were one of the top printers of Paper Theater sheets due to having detailed, quality products. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There were a number of Paper theater sheet printers across Europe in the 1800's and very early<br />
1900's of which the German sheets from J.F. Schreiber were among some of the best available.<br />
Schreiber produced a nice selection of proscenium, curtains, scenery sheets and<br />
over 80 different character sheets; many of which reference children stories. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Most of these sheets can be identified by the JFS# printed on the sheets</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Vintage Schreiber sheets can be purchased on the Internet via a variety of international auction houses but many of then sell for big money; however it's still possible to pick up some of these rare treasures for reasonable prices if you keep hunting. If antique prints and prices are not your thing there are a few companies that have reprints available for the modern enthusiast. To view a nice selection or Schreiber reprints click <a href="http://www.papiertheater-shop.com/epages/62903542.sf/en_AU/?ObjectPath=/Shops/62903542/Categories/Papiertheaterreproduktionen1/Buehnenbildboegen/Schreiber">HERE</a>. Several vintage JFS sheets can be seen and downloaded from the Dutch website "<a href="http://www.geheugenvannederland.nl/?/en/zoekresultaten/pagina/1/Papieren%20theaters/%28cql.serverChoice%20all%20Papieren%20%20AND%20theaters%29%20AND%20%28isPartOf%20any%20%22POP01%22%20%29/">Memory of the Netherlands</a>". There is also a nice selection of "Papieren Theaters" on the site; however there is little information listed about each one. If you see JFS marked on a sheet then it's a Schreiber. <span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"></span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The Schreiber No.400 a&b sheet I was working with had some issues; which I did my best to correct, so I had a good starting point while doing the digital assembly. An interesting item I discovered while working with this theater image is that the "2 upper bridge pieces" do not really line up well "color wise" when assembled. I even examined a number of vintage assembled theaters of the Schreiber Rococo online and noticed several of them do not line up seamlessly either. I was able to repair this color glitch on the assembled digital version I created and was quite please with the final result - I hope you agree.<br />
<br />
<u>Please note</u>: If you try and use the above sheet to assemble a theater<br />
the finished result is a bit "off" aesthetically. <br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is an example of a vintage assembled Rococo Theater showing the issue described above.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
If you take a close look along the top bar where the cherubs are you will see a definite division where the two parts of the strip just don't join well and the pattern's flow is broken. I found that aspect of the original to be too distracting and made corrections to my "assembled" <u></u>version to correct it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The next item I needed to consider while adapting my version, was what to do about a base.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The original sheet does not have one so again a did a bit more research and found a variety of ways the original sheet was assembled in past years. Some had a base drawer as seen in the above photo. Others had a plain pedestal wood base and so forth. I even found an example of this theater at an auction site where the entire theater was made narrower (maybe to avoid the odd top strip or simply because the other images that person had required a narrower theater)???</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is a selection of several slightly different assembled versions of this theater</div>

</tbody></table>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The top two examples seem to include the entire theater sheet. The top left appears as a slightly wider theater since the sides were assembled farther apart from the upper sections.<br />
The theater on the top right was assembled as the instruction diagram in the sheet showed.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The bottom two examples have been made into narrower theaters where the 2-part cherub strip was shortened so that all the side edges form a straight line; rather than the arched section being slightly shorter. The bottom left version shows a built up stage area or footer; and the one on the bottom right has a built up pedestal which is made up of a duplicate cherub strip.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I liked the original size of the theater and the duplicated cherub strip on the bottom from the last theater so that is the configuration I chose to go with for my digital version.</div>

The above image is the version I came up with and since I love curtains I added in a Schreiber curtain for some extra fun. I consider this an all in one adaptation that can still be modified later on should I want a different look. If you are working with a printout of this version you can cut it up as needed to slightly alter the look. The curtain can be cut out, the base can be removed; and if you remove the base, then the sides can be cut away and slid farther over to make a slightly wider theater.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That's one of the great things about working with paper theaters that have "sections"; </div>

many times they allow you to be flexible in how you choose to assemble the theater.</div>

Red theater curtains seem to be the most popular for theaters be they real or toy; but they came in other colors and I thought it would be fun to have a ready to go alternate color for mine as well.</div>

I like the way this periwinkle blue curtain worked with the proscenium so that's what I went with.</div>

I also decided to add in some scenery sheets so this would be a set and not just a theater surround.</div>

Toy theaters and dioramas can be built in any dimension you choose. Generally a toy theater has quite a bit of depth to it so that when the background is placed to the far back and the individual side wing panels are staggered, as each sequential set is placed forward, you get a great illusion from these flat elements. You have to remember you are dressing a stage just like in live theater, just on a smaller scale.</div>

While the J.F.S no400 a&b is just one of many beautiful paper theaters by the German publisher J.F. Schreiber; there were several other German Toy Theater Paper Sheets makers from the same period.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As with printers in various countries who produced toy theater sheets, there were a variety of qualities available, to suite nearly any budget. The higher quality images were printed on heavier, high grade paper. Those images were sharp and beautifully detailed and the coloring was exceptional. The budget quality sheets were printed on thinner, low grade paper, very much like newsprint. Depending on the printer the images range from very detailed to less refined. Usually the coloring process was of a much lower standard than what was being produced by the high end publishers; however there were some lovely sheets available even from the budget conscious print companies.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
When I originally posted about this vintage Paluzie Toy Theater from Spain, I made mention that I personally did not like the top portion of the theater and that my preference was to remove it and use just the lower box portion of the theater. Well, that caused me to try an find an alternate way of revising the look of the theater so I would keep it in tact. I like the final revised look and hope you do too. - grins</div>

Originally I did some clean up to the vintage sheet and digitally assembled it to create the full theater. I did not like the "topper" so I tried to add in more shadows and brightened up the figures and though this improved the image slightly, I still was not thrilled with the final look.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well, on <a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2013/03/spanish-paper-theater-images-part-2.html">that post</a> I did not want to stray too far from the charm of the original Spanish theater and left it at that. But it continued to bug me and I decided to take a new stab at it - this time I made several modifications to the original and tried a variety of backgrounds till I decided on my final look.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I decided the background behind the figures and the "flatness" of them was my main issue. So step one was to concentrate on statues, remove the upper background and find one that worked better.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Though I liked this look better, it still was not what I wanted; so at this stage of the game I decided to remove all the background from the entire theater and go for something more radical.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I recolored a majority of the theater which helped to give more dimension to the statues and other items. Then with the background removed I had the opportunity to add in more drop shadows and put in a unique background of my own, using a variety of layers and textures till I achieved this new look.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Once I got to my final background choice I wanted it in a few color options and choose to add in a drop curtain for each; so here are the three I came up with.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Note - The theater is based on a vintage Paluzie, but the additional drop curtain has been altered from a 1918 image published by Illustreret Familie Journal which was posted on Flickr - <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/esbenr/4833449099/in/photostream/">HERE </a></i></div>

I really like the way the new updated theater came out and think I might stand a better chance of keeping this theater in tack than I did before... but I still think I like it best without.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's probably all those lovely flowers, I seem to want them to be the focal point </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
without fighting for attention with the upper figures. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh well, different strokes for different folks. I'm sure many of you would prefer the original untouched version to the altered one but at least there are options to choose from and variety is the spice of life so you now have your pick.</div>

My Fanciful Muse was not quite ready to move on from the Paluzie theaters I've been posing about, so I've been having a bit of fun creating colorized versions of these vintage treasures.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Today I have a fun color selections on what I've dubbed the "Fairy Tale Theater"<br />
because it has that bejeweled, story book, kingdom look I associate with fairy tales.<br />
These little gems are based on a vintage image from Spain;<br />
which can be seen on the original post - <a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2013/03/spanish-paper-theater-images-part-1.html">HERE</a>. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The original image was intended to be an inner curtain to work with other Paluzie toy theaters; however I really liked the way this image took on it's own identity as an independent theater, by adding a base. And as much as I liked the original "red" version, I decided to created a variety of colors for added fun. So here is what My Muse came up with.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Enjoy! </div>

Hello once again from My Fanciful Muse to Yours.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today in Part 2 of Spanish Paper Theaters, I have another Paluzie Theater to share </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and then at the end of the post there are a few more mini Paluzie theaters for some added fun.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you want to catch up the previous post (Paluzie Part 1) can be seen - <a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2013/03/spanish-paper-theater-images-part-1.html">HERE</a></div>

</tbody></table>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This Paluzie Theater (Nº 1028) originally has a "topper" on it but I personally like the theater without it and wanted to show it displayed in this fashion to show that it can easily be removed to give the theater a other look. If you've been following my Toy Theater Posts, the curtain shown here probably looks familiar... and that would be correct. I used a red and green version of it on the Cherub Theater Part 1 post - <a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2013/02/cherub-toy-theater-part-1.html">HERE</a> and I'll be including it again today with this theater.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm still trying to discover who made or published this particular curtain and if I do I'll update the post to show that information. If any viewer knows who made this curtain or to what toy theater it belongs... I'd love to know, so drop me comment or email. Thanks in advance.</div>

This Paluzie, Barcelona theater started off as an uncut paper sheet from Spain. Though nice in it's original state I did some digital clean up and assembly and created two slightly different color versions of it for this post.</div>

The above sheet shows the progress from the original sheet (the first image at the very top) and the various new looks the theater can when using the project print sheets that will be included below.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The original theater sheet had some "extras" at the lower portion of the stage I did not like and so for my rendition of the theater those have been eliminated. The next change thought subtle was some clean up and highlighting of the figures at the top of the theater.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The digital alterations I made to the proscenium and especially the topper can best be shown with the above image. The changes are subtle but I think they make a world of difference in allowing the image to "pop" and give it a bit more dimension than it originally had.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The colors have been enhanced, more shadows were put in behind the figures and I backed the finished image with black for added definition.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Below are two printable theater play sheets; featuring my rendition of the Paluzie, Barcelona Nº 1028 Theater. Each is a slightly different color versions of the theater with a few curtain options I came up with. I call the one closest to the original "Sunset" and the pinker one "Melon".</div>

You can get a totally different look on the theater by removing the upper portion, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
with the figures; as I did with the first image shown on today's post.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Also, the "green" and "yellow" curtains from each set could easily be used with the </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
opposite theater coloration scheme if you wanted to mix things up even more.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Add in some backgrounds and interesting character figures and you can build any number of compositions that are unique. These can be used to build cards, dioramas or actual working mini theaters, depending on the amount of time you want to invest in your build.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To get you started I've created a sheet with a few vintage Paluzie backgrounds </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and matching side wings pieces that can be used with these theater sheets.</div>

The next group of theaters came as sheets that needed to be assembled to complete the Toy Theaters.<br />
Most of these sheets I was fortunate enough to purchase from European online sellers. <br />
They take a bit longer to arrive in the mail and you pay a lot for shipping to get them stateside; but I think it's worth the extra time and expense in the end when you get to see one of these beauties up close and personal.<br />

"Embocadura de Teatro - Teatro Moderno Nº 1090 bis"<br />
is shown above in both it's assembled version as well as the uncut sheet. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The
main portion of the theater is in one piece and then the orchestra
sections need to be </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
assembled in front to build the complete sheet as
intended.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
This orchestra strip can be attached directly to the theater's front or it could be used to cover a front </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
drawer that would hold additional paper sheets, characters and props used with a toy theater.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The builder could also opt not to use the orchestra at all and different base could be created </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for the theater or drawer cover if this section was not wanted or perchance is missing.<br />
<br />
I've noticed that some Paluzie sheets have similar numbers for different images.<br />
For example, farther down you will see another Paluzie sheet numbered 1090 but that theater is a smaller version of a Theater Español with accessories and not a Teatro Moderno like the above theater. </div><div style="text-align: center;"> </div><div style="text-align: center;">It's interesting that the above theater is Nº 1090 bis... I've noticed the "bis" ending on a few of my Paluzie sheets but they seem to be for scenery or accessories that accompany a theater facade sheet. This is the first Theater facade sheet I've had that carried a "bis" after the number.<br />
<br />
I'm not sure why two different theaters would carry the same sheet number but I'm guessing that they were made in different years and as one theater 1090 was no longer being made a different one was?<br />
I'm still searching an answer as to why "Embocadura de Teatro - Teatro Moderno Nº 1090 bis" has a bis ending next to the model number and will update the page if I ever find out - grins.</div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"> </div><div style="text-align: center;">(Update 5/22/2023 - "bis" numbering update - One of my readers asked for an updated on the "bis" numbering of these sheets, so I wanted to add what I can best figure out, here on this original post.</div><div style="text-align: center;">It does indeed seem that the "bis" notates this sheet is not the original 1090 but "another" 1090.</div><div style="text-align: center;">These are Spanish printings but in Italian referencing Latin "bis" denotes Encore! or Again! and is used in musical scores to indicate a part to be repeated. Bis is used in France and Italy instead of encore.</div><div style="text-align: center;">Based on other Paluzie sheets using "bis" next to the number it seems to indicate "this is in addition to" the original # produced... It could be that the "bis" sheet is in addition to, an updated version, an altered version or possibly in the case of Teatro Moderno 1090 a replacement version. "Bis" signifies an encore but not to be confused with another by the same number.)<br />

Teatro Español Nº 1060 (Decoraciones de Teatro - Fachada)<br />
Is shown above in both the uncut sheet and a vintage assembled version.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The main theater is in one piece and then the orchestra sections need to be added in front.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This strip can be attached directly to the theater's front or it could be used to cover a front </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
drawer that would hold additional paper sheets, characters and props used with a toy theater.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Occasionally you can discover variation in a theaters coloration. In the above example the vintage assembled theater has slightly different coloring than the vintage uncut sheet I own but this is one of the aspects that makes vintage paper toys so much fun.<br />
<br />
And remember earlier, on the Theater 1090 bis I left a note that there were two different theaters numbered 1090, well here are two different Teatro Español theaters with the number 1060.<br />
The above Teatro Español Nº 1060 is a Decoraciones de Teatro - Fachada Nº 1060 where as the below Teator Español Nº 1060 is listed as Fachada de Teatro Nº 1060; and to make matters more confusing the below Fachada de Teator Nº 1060 theater came in a smaller size with accessories and was numbered Nº 1090 - go figure???<br />

The colors on the above vintage Teatro Español 1060 sheet are slightly different from those seen in the below version of the smaller vintage assembled Teatro Español 1090. Here again I'm not sure if this is the case with all 1060 & 1090 Teatro Español's of this style or just these shown here.<br />
Either way I find it fascinating in it's confusion. </div>

The first uncut sheet Nº 1090 shows the theater and curtain and the </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
second sheet Nº 1061 shows a larger curtain and stage props alone and was </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
intended to be used with the larger Teatro Español Nº 1060 pictured above this example.<br />
<br />
Just goes to show when collecting you need to pay attention to the
numbering system and verify sizing when purchasing or you could be
purchasing the wrong item for your needs.<br />
The Curtain in the 1090 combination curtain/accessory sheet, is too small to work with the Fachada de Teatro Nº 1060. You need to have the larger Nº 1061 curtain and accessory sheet for the larger theater sheets: Fachada de Teatro Nº 1060 as well as the Teatro Moderno Nº 1090 bis". </div>

I hope you have enjoyed exploring vintage Toy Theaters from Paluzie, Barcelona with me. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
These are really near and dear to my heart; but they are not the only </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Paper Theaters that came from Spain. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Seix Barral was known for it's Toy Theater series “Teatro de los Niños” and </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hernando, Madrid has at least one Paper Theater and multiple scenery sheets that I'm aware of.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I might explore those with you at another time but for now <i>My Muse</i> seems to be </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
heading off in another direction so we will have to put that on the back burner for a bit.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So many projects and not enough hours in the day to get it all done, such is the wonder of life.</div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today I continue my series on Toy Theaters and Paper Theater images by exploring some of the vintage images that were produced in Barcelona, Spain by Paluzie.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Spain is near and dear to my heart and I have extensive family ties there. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was thrilled to discover some beautiful toy theater images from the land of my birth and I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I begin by showcasing this whimsical stage curtain in Spain's National colors of Red and Gold with a few "extras" thrown in and then toward the bottom of the post I wanted to show some interesting comparisons between Paluzie images from Spain and Imagerie Pellerin, d'Epinal images from France.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope you enjoy a digital journey to Spain with these vintage treasures.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I've done a bit of digital re-orchestration to create this particular Stage and curtain in one.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The original image was intended to be a curtain without a base but I thought it would make a nice stand alone stage and created a coordinating base for it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've also popped in a fancy red curtain which you can find on my deviantART account </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://eveyd.deviantart.com/art/Backdrop-Vintage-Theater-Stage-Curtain-Red-311108787">HERE</a> and other of my curtains can be seen at <a href="http://eveyd.deviantart.com/gallery/33415981">http://eveyd.deviantart.com/gallery/33415981</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So if you are wondering what the original curtain looked like, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
well here is a "process" sheet showing you the stages of assembly and creation.</div>
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The original sheet appears to be an "extras" set showing the parts of the curtain and some props.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I believe the original intent of the curtain is as an extra "inner" curtain to be used within another Theater or "Proscenium" rather than as a stand alone item.</div>

Personally I liked the image so much that I wanted it to stand alone as a theater;<br />
but if at any time I need just the curtain it is a simple process to
"cut off" the lower base<br />
and have it as originally intended.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I did find an image on the web showing a Paluzie Theater </div>

The Elaborate theater seen here is also by Paluzie and came as an unassembled sheet No 1028 </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Since I wanted the curtain to play a major role rather than extra window dressing I created a fun "print and play" sheet with the stage, background curtain and two different Paluzie sets.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The sets include a background and then side wings which are used to create </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
illusion and depth within a toy theater, just as they would be used on a real stage.</div>

OK - now for those who enjoy a bit of extra information along with pretty pictures...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Paluzie was a well known printer in Spain and was producing paper toy sheets around the same time as Pellerin aka d'Epinal was in France (especially from the c1865-1920's time period). </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Those who follow my blog know I did a series of posts on d'Epinal images at the end of 2012 and in January 2013 I did a 2 part post showing a <a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2013/01/french-paper-theater-depinal-no1579.html">d'Epinal toy Theater</a>; so I found it quite interesting as to how similar the styles of Paluzie was to Pellerin's d'Epinal sheets. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I wanted to show some of my findings in this regard.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Considering the d'Epinal firm had a larger selling market, I have to wonder if many of the Paluzie sheets were inspired by what they saw in d'Epinal or other well known Paper Theater makers of the day. Don't get me wrong. Many of the Paluzie sheets and theaters are original to them and beautiful in their own right; I just find it interesting that there are some similarities between them and other prints, especially the French d'Epinal sheets.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are a few comparison examples I found interesting.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

This first example shows a series of 4 mini theaters with stage, background and wings.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
On the bottom is d'Epinal's set of Petites Theatres (small theaters)</div>

I did not have the full uncut sheet of the Paluzie theaters;<br />
but I was able to recreate the look of it from images I have of the various parts. <br />

Though paper theaters were a majorly produced item for these companies, they also produced </div>

Jumping Jack (Pantin) paper dolls were popular from the late 1700's through the early 1900's so it's not uncommon that many companies made these types of paper sheets. </div>

I've seen more than a dozen different Pantins by d'Epinal (harlequins, clowns, dancers, pirates, Asian, Turkish and a variety of others). I have a 5 post series showing may of them starting <a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2012/08/vintage-pantin-jumping-jack-paper-dolls.html">HERE</a> if you want some nice downloadable versions to play with.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm sure Paluzie must have made more than just the one jointed paper doll but this is the only one I've seen so far. Here again, I think it's an issue of the Paluzie sheets being harder to acquire or gain access to reference versions of their images.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For this final comparison, I recently stumbled on this one and was shocked </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
at how similar the two Toy Theater background images were.</div>

</tbody></table>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The very colorful top background was by Paluzie and the elegant one on the bottom by Schreiber. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
J.F. Schreiber of Germany was one of the top publishers of Toy Theater sheets and they produced exceptionally well made sheets during their day; so I found it quite interesting how similar the Paluzie was to the Schreiber. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've noticed this in the past with other toy theater sheets and going forward I'm going to start keeping track because I find it fascinating and it may make for another interesting post later on down the line.</div>

Today I wanted to share an assembled toy theater using images from the <a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2013/02/cherub-toy-theater-part-2.html?showComment=1361820078469#c2944319361943320153">last post</a> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and some fun wooden fashion figures as characters for my stage.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I chose my "Onyx" version of the Cherub Theater for this project.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I printed and assembled the "Onyx" theater from the <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/porkchopshow?ref=seller_info">previous Toy Theater post</a>; which I mounted to heavy cardboard and attached it to a theater base I constructed from black foam core board. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I then used these fun wooden cutouts as characters as players on the stage. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've been wanting to do a project with these great miniature wooded figures from <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/porkchopshow">PorkChopShow via Etsy</a> and thought they would be great in a toy theater; so I sized down my theater just a bit (to approx 5 inches tall) to accommodate the pretty ladies which are approximately 2.5 inches in height. Of the figures I received I've chosen to use these adorable vintage ballerinas and a nice selection of Regency Fashion ladies from my <a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2011/11/41-regency-fashion-plate-ladies-from.html">2011 Ackermann's Collection</a> that are now available in wood thanks to the creative energy of <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/porkchopshow">PorkChopShow</a>. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Normally I would use paper cutouts as characters in a Paper Theater; however, it was so much fun to have these heavier woodcuts to use for a change. I chose to get my ladies to "stand" by attaching some flat head tacks from the hardware store as a base. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
For the most part the flat bottom tacks woke grate as stand for the wooden cutouts; however depending on the weight distribution or surface area some modification of use was necessary as with the ballerina to the right. In her case with just one narrow toe on point I was not able to insert the tack into the piece without "splitting" it, so I opted to glue her on the tack. I also needed to glue the tack to a coin to help stabilize her since her weight was not evenly distributed and she kept wanting to tip over. Normally I would have painted the coin black to disguise if from view but in this instance I wanted it to show up for the camera so you could see what I'd done.</div>

I know the ladies are a bit hard to see on the dark background but they are 1/8 inch thick and between 2.25 and 2.50 inches tall. They are great for using on projects where you want something more substantial than a paper cutout and since they are laser cut the edges are smooth and clean.</div>

I wanted some for Christmas Tree decorations and that's what I'll be doing with my larger set. </div>

in the post along with a nice color selection of other. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I started with an unassembled theater sheet, did a bit of clean up and then assembled it digitally. I did a small bit of color clean up but not much; since for <a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2013/02/cherub-toy-theater-part-1.html">Part 1</a> of the post I wanted to present a fairly vintage authentic version of the theater. There are still some fun "adds" in <a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2013/02/cherub-toy-theater-part-1.html">Part 1</a> but the real magic for me takes place on this post and I hope you thing so too.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The two bottom images show how the alteration progressed for this new post. I started off by reworking the details and colors on the entire theater and I chose to give the theater a base rather then leaving it open. I like having the addition to "anchor" it; however if the base is not needed for whatever reason it could easily be removed. Once this was done I removed the original curtain topper and installed a different Joseph Scholz theater curtain in its place.</div>

This full curtain can be used in addition to the above theater or if you
have chosen to cut out the curtain portion on the theater you could use
just the upper swag portion of this curtain as a topper curtain on the
theater. It's fun to get creative and try different looks on these
theaters.</div>

Once again the original paper theater came as an unassembled paper sheet which needed to assembled into a toy theater. I've done it digitally; however back in the 1800's this would have been done on a wooden or heavy cardboard base and turned into a dimensional and working theater.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
This is a quick print sheet with all the individual parts used to create the different theater looks.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Most of the items are by the Publisher Joseph Scholz. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Since Toy Theaters are more of a European hobby and you may never have heard of Joseph Sholz, I thought I'd put in a little blurb with the information I had on this publisher.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<u><b>A bit about the German publisher Jos. Scholz.</b></u></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The company was started by Joseph Carl Scholz (1768-1813) and passed to his sons after his death. They expanded into Lithographic printing in 1820 and by 1829 the company was split between 3 bothers. The two eldest settled in Mainz and started producing Penny Prints, Paper Toys, Board Games and later expanded into Illustrated Children's books.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
At the height of their success they had twenty large presses that had a hard time keeping up with the demand and as many as 350 colorist, usually women, working on the prints. Though located in Germany they produced items for other countries as well, which explains why on some of their prints you may see instructions or notations in multiple languages. It was not uncommon for there to be between 2-5 multi-language notation, depending on how many countries a sheet would be sold.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman";">German,Italian, French, English, Danish, Swedish, Dutch and sometimes even Latin would appear on a Jos. Scholz sheet. </span><br />

Those of you who follow my blog know I love to digitally alter and change images. This "Cupid's Theater" is no exception and here is a little sneak peek of what's coming up next time in Part 2.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I decided to add in a base for the theater, remove the original curtain topper, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
add in the alternate open curtain and modify the theater's coloration.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Once I had this format the way I wanted I then made some significant color changes </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and brought in one more JS curtain option for when it's "curtain down" time.</div>

I have a fondness for the paper toy sheets created by the French "<a href="http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=fr&u=http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_d%27%25C3%2589pinal&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dd%2527epinal%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26hs%3DXPE%26tbo%3Dd%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla:en-US:official&sa=X&ei=CNoBUbXNGILU9QTEvYHoDg&ved=0CDgQ7gEwAA">d'Epinal</a>" company during the late 1800's. In late 2012 I did a series of jointed paper dolls I altered based in vintage <a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2012/09/chineese-style-french-pantin-mechanical.html">d'Epinal "Pantin"</a> sheets and today I'm posting about my latest project which is one of the d'Epinal Paper Theaters.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To keep this post from being too long I've broken it up in to two parts.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Welcome to Part 1 - d'Epinal Paper Theater No.1579<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Enjoy using the images for your crafting pleasure!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
While many paper theaters of the 1800's and early 1900's were available as a single image; </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
others had to be assembled from sheets where the parts were unassembled.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This was the case with d'Epinal No. 1579. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is a deconstructed sheet that required reassembly to form the main portion </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of the theater or "proscenium" as it is also called.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As I've stated in previous posts regarding d'Epinal sheets; </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
These were inexpensive paper toy sheets and the print quality is not usually very good. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This sheet was no exception and quite a bit of digital cleanup was needed </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to achieve the end result I was looking for.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The above image shows the steps I went through to take a vintage paper theater sheet and digitally enhance it to become the theater set I finally came up with. Once this was achieve I then made a series of them in various color combinations. (I'll post them all for you next time in Part 2).</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For this first post I wanted to talk a bit about this vintage theater </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and the process I took to get the "new" look for it.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Usually d'Epinal sheets are too large to scan in one shot: </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so you either have to scan in sections or take a photograph and work from that.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This project was a digital "piecing" game for starters.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Once I had a full digital sheet to work with on the computer I moved on to cleaning up the image.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The original theater had blunt edges at the base and I wanted them to look more like the footed columns they were, so I digitally extended them. They could easily be cut off if they proved a problem when assembling a theater but I think they add a lot aesthetically and will enjoy having them there when I use the image in digital projects.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The original sheet also has a bit of a side curtain at each column; a red one on the left and a blue on the right. Personally I thought the looked better matching so I made them both blue. There was a substantial amount of color work that needed fixing throughout the parts and while I did not want to take away from the "charm" of the original I tried to clean up or enhance where I could.</div>

Now then I first attempted to assemble this theater, I got it totally and completely wrong.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Prior to this sheet the paper theaters I've worked with were assembled ones or those that formed an "arch" opening with no footer, so that's what I thought I had here - an Arch.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Boy was I wrong and I thought I'd share my giggle with you </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
by seeing how I originally constructed this sheet.</div>

The large outer image is how I incorrectly put it together the first time.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I did not realize that this sheet (in the black box) consisted of 4 pieces and not 3 as I originally assumed. The top piece on the sheet is actually 2 pieces with a very slight separation between them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
These two sections form the middle header and footer (circled) of the theater and are flanked by the columns on either side to finish it off; forming a lengthwise theatrical rectangle.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Boy did it look so much better when assembled the correct way.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So - how did I discover my mistake...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was looking at some of my other theater sheets and noticed some of them had small "assembled" diagrams in the corner of the sheet to assist the builder in doing the job correctly.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This d'Epinal sheet did not have that perk, yet when I re-studied the image I quickly realized where I got it wrong and then started looking through some of my reference images of "unknown" paper theaters and discovered this very one. I just never associated the two since till now.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I know on occasion d'Epinal sheets can have differently colored versions of the same No. sheet so I'm not sure if that is what happened in this instance or if this is due to sun exposure and fading.<br />
Since I don't know the history of the above assembled theater; It may have been on display for years which would account for fading but if it was stored away then it was probably colored differently. <br />
<br />
Here is an earlier 1854 d'Epinal Sheet of this theater with a very strong color scheme<br />

This early version of this French Theater sheet by d'Epinal has much stornger colors and the print/color process is much higher quality than what was found in the later sheets.<br />
There is even metallic gold ink trim on this example. <br />
This image is from the French Library System - <a href="http://gallica.bnf.fr/Search?ArianeWireIndex=index&f_typedoc=images&q=d%27epinal&lang=FR&n=15&p=73&pageNumber=95">HERE</a></div>

This web site (<a href="http://www.papiertheater-shop.com/">http://www.papiertheater-shop.com</a>/) sells reproductions of wonderful vintage theaters; they even had the curtain that should be used with the theater.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Using images from their site I digitally constructed what <a href="http://www.papiertheater-shop.com/epages/62903542.sf/de_DE/?ObjectPath=/Shops/62903542/Categories/Reproduktionen1/Buehnenbildboegen/Imagerie_dEpinal_Pellerin">their d'Epinal theater</a> with curtain would look like and this is what I came up with.</div>

I only had 2 d'Epinal curtains and since I did not like either of them for this theater; </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
My fascination with paper theaters has caused me to acquire an unusual mix of</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
vintage parts and pieces; as well as, photos of items on my "wish list". </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, I thought I'd combine a bit of all these elements into making my </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
blog page background and banner.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For the background I used a portion of an assembled vintage toy theater that I had a photo of. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>(Sorry but for the life of me I can't locate where I downloaded the larger image from</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i> - I'll update the info here if I later find the link.)</i><br />
I believe the Theater (Proscenium) is German c1880 by Adolf Engel<br />
and is called Agyptischer Temple (Egyptian Temple)<br />
There is one on display at the Bruce Museum - <a href="http://brucemuseum.org/site/events_detail/a_childs_view_19th-century_paper_theaters_-_images">HERE </a><br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I did some slight digital alterations to square it up, remove the curtain and a bit of color correction. Next I added in a different paper curtain element and overlayed another altered vintage paper curtain composition I created back in 2011. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
A selection of my altered vintage paper theater curtains </div>

Back in Feb 2011 - I posted a bit about Toy Theaters and my interest in them - <a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2011/02/vintage-toytheaters-penny-plain-and-two.html">HERE</a>. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It gives you a bit of an idea about them, just in case you've never seen one </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
or are wondering what I'm talking about. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can also see some of my favorite Toy Theater finds on my Pinterest board - <a href="http://pinterest.com/myfancifulmuse/toy-theaters/">HERE</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm sure you'll catch the paper theater bug too after seeing some of those beauties.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Over the course of 2011 and 2012 I explored my "digital" side by creating a </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
variety of art projects on the computer that had a "toy theater" look about them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Those posts can be seen by clicking <a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/search/label/Toy%20Theater">HERE</a> or you can select the </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"Toy Theater" label in the right hand blog column under "Labels" .</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For 2013 - I launch off on a Grand Quest into the Paper Theater world.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope to add many vintage originals paper sheets to my collection, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
purchase a vintage theater of my very own, create some miniature theaters based on images </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
from my collection and I want to create at least one original EKDuncan paper theater sheet set.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's a tall order for 2013, let's see if I can accomplish it all by the end of the year.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Wish me luck!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And I hope you like the new look for the page.</div>

There is something to be said for ringing out the old and bringing in the new as the years change. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I thought it was time to give up some vintage "treasures" from my past </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and let them move on to new homes in 2013. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today (Jan 7, 2013) I put up my vintage 1972 <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blythe_%28doll%29">Blythe doll</a> up for auction, so she could find a new home; and if she is a lucky girl, get restored into a the shining beauty she can be.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I considered doing the job myself and blogging about the process; but was afraid I'd end up </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
making a mess of it. Even in her current state she is a valuable doll to a Blythe collector, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so I decided to leave her transformation to someone with more know-how and confidence</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
in getting the job done. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think my old girl's got a lot of potential!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The Original Blythe doll made by Kenner in 1972 only had short lifespan of that one production year. Many girls found her big head and eyes "spooky" and so she was pulled from production due to low sales and customer feedback.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have to admit, I was one of those girls.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There I was an excited 7 year old, expecting to find the Malibu Barbie </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I wanted and this odd doll stared back at me from her box. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The boxed doll I had did not have this pretty "flipped" hairstyle, instead her hair was </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
pulled back into a ponytail and her pink eyes were starring straight at me from her box.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So imagine the image of the "center" doll, giving you the eye from her box.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Not exactly what a 7 year old wanted to see on Christmas day at all.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>My Mom even tried to give this same
doll to my niece several times this past year; which she refused to take
possession of. When I retrieved Blythe back from my Mom's this
Christmas </i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>(40 years after the day I first got her as fate would have it) </i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>my niece told me she was glad it was leaving the city for good, since it gave her the "creeps".</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The above photo from <a href="http://blythopia.com/kenner-blythe/">Blythopia</a> gives you an idea of what a the brunette with bangs, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"Medieval Mood" Blythe looked like - back in the day before being outcast in my doll chest.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Bless her plastic heart she was/is in dire need of a stylist to bring out her "cute" side. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To be fair to Blythe...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I tried to play with her back in the 70's but she could not wear Barbie's clothes they were all too big so she just ended up in the bottom of the toy chest for the duration of my childhood and then got packed into the attic with all my other dolls years ago. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sadly several decades in an attic trunk did not allow her to remain young and fresh as you can imagine, so she is in need of some TLC and a new wardrobe to become all she can be.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I believe she was originally marketed to have Purple, Green, Blue and Amber Eyes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but in 1972 Hong Kong they gave her Pink instead of Purple and Orange instead of Amber.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I don't know if that was a translation problem, a color lot issue or if somewhere </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
along the marketing being written and color selection things got changed? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Either way Blythe is an unusual doll due to this ability to chance eye color with the pull of a string.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Even her modern counterpart being made in <a href="http://www.blythedoll.com/en/">Japan by Takara</a> has this signature feature.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm no expert on Blythe dolls but I believe one of the reasons many seek out an </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
original 1972 Blythe for their collections is the fact that she has bendable legs.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Luckily my Blythe came through the years with her legs intact; </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
this is probably due to the fact that she was not "played" with very often.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's interesting how your perception of things changes with age.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When I was 7, I found her pink eyes disturbing but 40 years later they are kinda cool. </div>

This is a good close up on her face showing some marks and scratches on her face.</div>

Her face has "yellowed" a bit over the years and her cheek color has "worn" off.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The new trend seems to be to give Blythe a matte face rather than leaving her face shiny a she was originally made, so this doll would be a good candidate for the modern "facial" </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of several sandings and buffings to acquire that look.</div>

I've got Blythe's bangs pulled off her face so the scalp hair seem can be seen. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As typical with most 1972 Blythe dolls there is a bit of glue visible.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As I understand it another distinction of the 1972 Blythe is that if her lashes </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
get wet, they won't fall off. I did not test the theory - grins. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love the way Blythe's eyes slant off to the side for the Blue and Green color choice.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The "white" of her eyes are still fairly white but there is a bit of yellowing in spots, particularly at the mid part of each eye where there is a seam. This is probably due to the aging of the glue or whatever bonding agent they used in the factory while assembling the eyes.</div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;"> Originally t</span></span></span></span>here were several versions of Blythe from a Black haired to Blond, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
some with bangs, others without but they all suffered the fate of extinction back in 1972.<br />
Then in the late 1990's they picked up a new "artistic" following and by 2001 a<br />
newer version of them was being produced in Japan. Their popularity started to rise<br />
and Blythe has quite a large following and fan base across the globe.<br />

Blythe is a popular doll in Japan; she has many looks and comes in a variety of hair colors.<br />
There is even a line of haircolor so you can match yours to your dolls.<br />
This is not dye for dolls, it's for humans but Blythe dolls show you the color you will get.<br />
By looking at the boxes you can see the subtle differences between the vintage<br />
1972 Blythe dolls and her more modern counterpart.<br />

You can purchase some pretty amazing modern Blythe dolls in the box from Japan; however<br />
don't expect to find them inexpensively; these dolls retail for hundreds of dollars.<br />
<br />
Even as lovely as these dolls can be, I'm more fascinated by the unique creations<br />
many doll artists and stylists create using both vintage and modern versions of Blythe.</div>

OK
so basically Blythe is not your typical "little girls" doll; however if
restored and "dressed" right she can be a very cute doll or
dramatically stunning as in the Cookie Doll creations by Rebeca Cano,
seen in the above photo. I've seen many nice examples of what Blythe
enthusiast create; which is why I chose to put my "in need of TLC" 1972
Original Blythe Doll on the market. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My hope is she will finally be turned into a "jewel" herself.</div>

Due to my partial European heritage I celebrate "<a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2010/12/christmas-nativity-magi-epiphany.html">Old Christmas</a>" </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
which is the 12 days of Christmas from Dec 25 - Jan 5 with the celebration of </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the Epiphany on Jan 6th; as well as the traditional American holiday.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Part of my personal "celebrations" includes something vintage.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I always treat myself to some vintage finds at the Holidays and thought I'd give you </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a sneak peek of what new treasures I'll be posting about in 2013.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There were lots of great vintage finds available for sale this Holiday season. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Some I was lucky enough to purchase including one win on eBay today! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Other treasures will continue to remain on my wish list for later down the line. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You win some - You loose some but that's just the way of it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<u><b>So here were my Christmas purchases for this past year - 2012. </b></u></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Eventually I will get them all scanned in and posted so you </i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I've added another vintage Dennison to my paper doll collection.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This one is the older since it was published in 1899 and it has 6 wonderful pages of examples </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
on how to "dress" the articulated ballerina and prima donna dolls they use to sell.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Those dolls are the L&B beauties I blogged about back in October 2012; so if you want to </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
download those vintage paper dolls start with the post - <a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2012/10/royal-l-articulated-paper-doll-gets-new.html">HERE</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There are 12 posts in all with lots of Vintage L&B paper dolls for you.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'll be scanning an posting the doll pages from the 1899 catalog later on in 2012, so you can enjoy new ways on how to decorate the dolls as they were intended back c1900.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also found many of the other c1900 projects most interesting, so I'll have to post those as well.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also hope to explore more of my other 1905 Dennison catalog with you too.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I previously posted some of the doll page information back in 2010 which you can see - <a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2010/09/1905-dennison-art-and-decoration-in.html">HERE</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Of the two catalogs I have to say that the 1899 is the best regarding the vintage L&B paper dolls.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It just has so much more information about them; which leads me to believe that while they were still selling the dolls in 1905 they may not have been as popular as they were in the late 1880's & the 1890's and the gentleman I purchased the 1899 catalog from informed me that an earlier 1898 catalog contained the same doll pages as this one but an earlier 1894 catalog was different in content, so it looks as I need to continue trying to find the older 1890 and possibly 1880 catalogs.</div>

As you can see from the three ladies on top they are not as vibrant in color as those still attached and I'm not sure if this is due to "fading" from age or if the three I purchased were printed at a later time than the sheet of 4. It was not uncommon for L&B to produce dies in different sizes and I have found the print quality of others to change depending on if they were printed prior to or after 1900.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm still thrilled to have them in my collection and will be scanning them and </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
doing some digital magic to get them looking similar to their vibrant cousins below.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Eventually I hope to add a crisp and vibrant attached set of 4 similar to this reference photo.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Time will tell.</div>

I lucked up and got these amazing Victorian scrap pocket watches from </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the same seller in France as the above 3 ladies.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They are petite with the watch faces being only 1 inch across</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I fell in love with these pocket watch scraps and didn't think I had a chance of winning</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
them since a similar auction by the same seller went for over $50 in November.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This shows that eventually luck has to swing your way if you keep at it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I got them at a super deal and paid just under $10 total to the seller </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for them along with the three L&B beauties and shipping from France. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The detail on these are wonderful and I had never seen any as fancy as these in the past. I know L&B made a variety of watch face scraps and I have my suspicions that they may have made these as well but I'm not 100% sure. I hope to one day see an entire attached sheet with makers mark so I'll know for sure but if any of you out there know who made these - please clue me in, would ya?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

when I found it; then I lucked up and won my auction in Dec for just under $5.00.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I got 7 small fancy pocket watch scraps with no duplicates, so really the only thing </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I missed out on was getting the larger images along with my mini watches.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Last month I was posting about vintage Christmas scraps </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
- regarding the variety of <a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2012/12/vintage-christmas-santa-victorian-scraps.html">"Santa" images that were made c1900</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well one of those image sheets has been on my with list for close to 2 years;</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and I finally worked a deal with the German seller to get my "Mystic" Santa heads.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm still waiting on their arrival from overseas and hope to see them soon.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm not sure if these were intended to be Santa heads or not but I like the idea of using them in that way. These images could also be used with: mystic, sawammie, fortune teller, pasha or wise men themes. Any way you look at it they just look like a bunch or fun.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This will be my first A&M (Albrecht & Meister) image that I'm aware of, so I'm excited </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
about seeing how it is compared to L&B and some other vintage scraps I have in my collection.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Seeing as they were German made, I'm sure they will measure up just fine.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I did splurge quite a bit to get this set but according to the seller in Germany, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it's a very rare set to find intact so I'll consider it an investment in </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
preserving a paper treasure from the past - final negotiated price $90.00.<br />
( update 6-25-2013 - sadly these were lost in the mail and to date have not arrived) </div>

OK - another of my favorite paper collectables are toy theaters or anything to do with a toy theater and I stumbled upon this fun find a few weeks back that now has me searching for more of it's kind.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
According to the seller other issues of the Philadelphia Press had scenery and plays that could be used with the theater you see below - so it looks like I need to hunt a bit to find the "extras" but at least I have the staging ground. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I was so pleasantly surprised by the quality of this vintage newspaper insert but then again the quality of paper items made in the late 1800's seems to be much nicer than what you find today.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I thought it was a fair purchase at $40.00 including shipping charges. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm sure it was bonuses such as these that inspired several to purchase this paper over another paper.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For instance this theater was created to have 3 plays to go with it. One that came out in the same issue as the theater and then one each on the next two Sundays. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This tri-fold "theater" is made of a light weight cardboard or heavy duty cardstock.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's about the thickness of what cereal boxes are made of . </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The center portion with the stage measures 10" wide x 7 1/2" tall </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and each of the "wing" sides are 6 wide x 7 1/2"tall.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The size was just perfect since in it's folded state it's slightly smaller than a sheet of paper </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and can be placed easily into a standard sheet protector pocket for safe storage.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It will also lend itself to a manageable size to scan which is always an important </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
consideration for me when I purchase vintage images like this one.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My thought is to present it in July since it has such a patriotic theme.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
presented as it's Scientific Art Supplement a set of 3 Acrobats.</div>

Just in case you are wondering why this acrobat looks a bit odd???</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The person that originally assembled him a long time ago, has his thighs upside down.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When I get him in I'll probably disassemble him, scan his parts and then re-assemble him correctly.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'll probably wait a little while before posting him since I hope to add the other two acrobats so I can post them all together. We'll see how it plays out over the next month or so.</div>

Basically you cut out the parts, connect them by knotting string at the joints </div>

and then use toothpicks through the hands to get them to work.</div>

The funny thing is an uncut sheet of them sold in 2011 for under $20.00 which is about what </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I paid for the one assembled acrobat. Back then I was concentrating on buying </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
L&B ladies and passed the acrobats over thinking they were just printed on newspaper. </div>

<u><b>My Latest Interest</b></u></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I truly am fascinated with the Sunday Art Supplements that appeared in the 1890's though out the country and am starting to investigate the wide variety of interesting paper toys. What little I've discovered so far is that many of these artful creations were syndicated and an item </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that showed up one Sunday in Philadelphia might appear the next Sunday or </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a few Sundays later in Boston, New York, Chicago or some other major paper. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This can increase one's chances of acquiring these vintage images unless </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
you strictly want your collection to be from a specific publication.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Probably one of the most well known set of images from the 1890's Sunday papers is a set of fashion dolls that included 2 dolls and a series of costumes to dress her in. I have not personally collected any of them but I've known about them for years and when you see the image below, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm sure you'll recognize them too.</div>

From what I've seen so far on the 1890's Sunday paper theaters; when they published one of these then they would follow up for the next few Sundays with additional sets to add to the theater stage.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In this instance The Boston Sunday Globe issued the Theater and the first play with the Brownies on Dec 8, 1895 then on January 26, 1896 they came out with the Uncle Tom's Cabin play.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There are probably several more "plays" in between.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The second image on the Theater sheet (which is the stage floor) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
states - "other plays will be given from time to time".</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I suspect Cinderella to be another of the plays for this theater...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ironically I've run across this "play" set from the New York Recorder in Jan 1896 .<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
This Cinderella play seems to be part of the above "Brownie" theater series; so my guess is </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the New York
Recorder also printed that theater and the plays that went with it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm not sure how many other Sunday papers around the nation printed these theaters but it gives me hope that I stand a chance at one day getting some of them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm looking forward to my 2013 vintage paper adventures </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and I hope you join me from time to time as I play.</div>

I was having a bit of fun searching for vintage Victorian Christmas ornaments<br />
yesterday and stumbled on some intriguing items I just had to share.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Victorian ornaments using Dresden trim we common back in the day and<br />
I love seeing old ornaments using them.<br />
This year I spotted some beauties and some really rare items I've never seen before;<br />
which have now peeked my curiosity to learn more about them. <br />
One even sold for a whopping $1675.00 if you can believe that. <br />
<br />
I hope you enjoy seeing these items as much as I enjoyed finding them.</div>

OK - any of you who follow my posts know about my collection of vintage </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
German L&B dolls and German scraps that are used to create this type of dressed doll.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well this one is an exceptional vintage creation that grabbed my attention.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This sweetheart sold on eBay for $103.00 recently and is a fabulous example of what a bit of creativity and a few vintage items can produce. She is made from a vintage German scrap, vintage crepe paper (the heavy duty kind like Dennison made years ago) and some gold Dresden stars.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The seller posted some great photos of her and she does not have the look of being </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
recently created so I do believe the parts and assembly of her are indeed vintage.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This type of scrap and the process of creating these types of dolls were popular in</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the very late 1800's and super early 1900's but the parts are still available today.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So yes, you could create one of your vary own with a similar look if you choose.</div>

Dresden ornaments are primarily German in origin but a variety of Dresden accented<br />
or ornaments of a similar style come Russia.<br />
This set was probably Ukrainian in origin and have a very Russian Orthodox Church look to them.<br />
They sold on eBay for $39.00<br />
<br />
A similar set of Angels also sold around the same time.<br />

Many of the Dresden trims used on these angels are still being produced in Germany today and if you are lucky you can purchase old vintage trim if you hunt for it.<br />
<br />
Recently a seller put up for auction their family's 100+ German Christmas Ornament collection<br />
and in it were lots of vintage Dresden Scraps as well as some amazing pressed cardboard<br />
ornaments that sold for a mini fortune (I've posed some of them farther down).<br />
<br />
***** <br />
<u><b>A bit about Dresden Products</b>.</u><br />
They are German made embossed, die-cut gilded cardboard or foil paper trims.<br />
Depending on what their purpose was will account for if it was the heavier gilded cardboard<br />
or the lighter weight foil paper. <br />
<br />
It is still possible to find some new-old stock and those are a rare treat since they are heavier in weight than what is usually produced today. Many antique Dresden items have been handled repeatedly over the years, leaving them with a heavy patina or aged look; but I think that lends to their charm and are great on rustic looking Christmas trees or projects.<br />
Then there are the vintage pressed and gilded ornaments which are a category unto<br />
themselves and their prices go through the roof when they appear on the open market.<br />
<br />
The new Dresden trims have the look of the old ones since they are many times made from the original plates back in Germany. They are affordable and readily available but they are slightly thinner and the foil process is not the same as was used 100+ years ago, so while a great substitute for crafters; they are not the same as vintage in look or feel - in my humble opinion.<br />

These two photos will let you compare vintage Dresden to their modern counterpart.<br />
Personally I find the new versions too lightweight to be used as ornaments on their own.<br />
Basically they are a pressed foil paper where the vintage ones are a sturdier stock.<br />

Modern Dresden trims are available from a variety of sources including sellers on eBay and Etsy.<br />
They come in a nice variety of metallic colors, shapes and sizes and add a great finishing touch to projects that have a Victorian look or that call for a bit of something "extra" to them.<br />
Many online suppliers also sell them - an Internet search for "Dresden Trim" will pull up several.<br />
<br />
I first got turned on to Dresden trim and paper dolls years ago from this link - <a href="http://www.victorianornaments.com/Make%20Ornament.html">HERE</a><br />
www.victorianornaments.com is the reason I started collecting<br />
<a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2012/10/l-articulated-paper-doll-sets-and-sheet.html">L&B articulated paper dolls</a> as well as my budding interest in Dresden trims. <br />
<br />
Last year I even created a fun assortment of colorized Dresden stars<br />
for digital use on my deviantART account which can be seen <a href="http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=&section=&global=1&q=eveyd+dresden">HERE</a><br />

It's a beautiful old Dresden Shrine/Stage but it has quite a bit of damage; however<br />
I love the concept of using small "chromo" images with this type of Dresden frame.<br />
This will be a great way for me to use some of my smaller vintage scraps with<br />
modern Dresden pieces to get a similar look to hang on my tree.<br />

I'm fascinated by the pressed ornaments with multiple metallic colors on them as found on this parrot. At nearly 6 inches tall he's a beauty and was won for $22 with shipping<br />
<br />
I'm sure there were various quality ornaments made depending on manufacturer and year produced as can be seen in the difference in the above parrot and the one listed below.<br />

Now the really unusual Dresden styled cardboard ornaments that go for the real money seem to be 3 dimensional pressed cardboard ones like that $711.00 butterfly I showed farther up in the post. I guess over the years so many of them did not survive or were discarded and those that remain seem to be highly sought out by collectors. This is the first year that I've noticed them; however with the price tags these are getting; I know I'll be paying more attention to this type of collectible going forward. Check you closets and family's stash of ornaments ladies and gents - you may have a forgotten treasure stashed away.<br />

Here are a few of the rare beauties that sold in the last month or so on eBay.<br />

Animals seemed to have been one of the more popular choices in ornaments when these were originally made but my favorite are the boots - how cool!<br />
<br />
All these ornaments came from same collector and I find it interesting to see the amount of wear on the finish of some vs the finish of the others. The two birds on the bottom seen to have brighter color but it could be due to their "broken" condition that they were stored away and not put on the tree year after year as those from the top row may have been.<br />
<br />
It's no wonder these creatures come up missing a foot or wing as time passes.<br />
Just imagine, these are basically a heavy pressed paper and after 100+ years of being handled and packed year after year it's a wonder many of them survived through the years.<br />
<br />
I'm sure many a family tossed out those that got broken, crushed or lost their colorful coating from one year to the next but even in damaged condition the rare ones still brought in hundreds of dollars to the seller.<br />
<br />
Super rate or those in excellent condition were pushing into the thousand dollar mark or more.<br />

Two serious collectors pushed the price over the thousand dollar mark by auction end.<br />

The seller had stated that after being in her family over a hundred
years they were getting too fragile to be used on the tree anymore and
rather than seeing them deteriorate any farther wanted to give true
collectors a shot at them so they could be appreciated and preserved.<br />

This one may not be beautiful to look at but it is extraordinary for what it is<br />
and that it survived intact all these year - surprising.<br />
I'm intrigued at how he is "lashed" onto his cycle and that his vintage bindings are still there. <br />
There were a total of 31 bids amongst a handful of hopefuls.<br />
I can see how a collector would fork out $1307.00 to get him.<br />

I'm a big fan of c1900 German paper collectibles but when you see items like this ornament you truly understand the the beauty is in the details. I love how on the parts that don't "join up" as in the rear legs you get a sneak peek at the construction. You can see the thickness of the paper used and how amazing these pieces truly are. Each and everyone is a treasure for sure.<br />

I got a super kick on seeing this vintage find!<br />
I knew "Crackers" were a big part of Victorian Christmas celebrations<br />
but did not realize they came in shapes as seen with this vintage pistol.<br />
This is another miracle survivor into the present age.<br />
It's saving grace could have been the fact that it had separated one side from<br />
another and probably was packed away and forgotten for years.<br />
I can't otherwise imagine a "cracker" making it that long<br />
without an interesting story behind it's survival. <br />
<br />
The seller left it in it's present condition so buyers could see the internal parts on this piece. It's probably not often that one would get the opportunity to see the inside of a shaped "cracker" of this vintage and quality.<br />
<br />
Browsing the web and auctions can be such a fun education, where else will<br />
you find a Victorian Christmas cracker in the shape of a pistol?<br />
6 bidder and 8 bids finally topped out at $260.00 for this treasure.<br />
This item was presented by a seller in Latvi.</div>

Well there you have it my fun vintage Dresden eBay Christmas finds for 2012.<br />
I hope it inspires you to dig through you attics to see if you have any surprises waiting for you. <br />
<br />
<br />
Lucky collectors with the extra cash picked up some spectacular example of these old world treasures; and we get the joy of seeing some treasures from the past that outside of a museum setting I'm not sure would have been seen in mass as these were.<br />
<br />
These were so much fun to see I think I'll continue to look for them thou-out the year. <br />
<br />
I'm not sure I can fit in another post before the big day gets here;<br />
so in case I don't - as the Victorians would have said...<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
and thought I would post some fun vintage images I have in my archives.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I personally don't like to invest a lot of money in Christmas themed vintage scraps; but as I browse the web and search auction sites for other Victorian related paper products and dolls...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have a tendency to save images for reference.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today I'm posting some of my favorite Santa finds. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Happy Holidays and Enjoy!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I collect <a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2012/10/l-articulated-paper-doll-sets-and-sheet.html">L&B articulated paper dolls</a> so in my hunt for those I run across great Christmas images by them on a regular basis. L&B (Littauer & Boysen) made a large assortment of Santa images from the 1880's through the early 1900's and these two extra large heads are among my favorites.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think it's interesting to see a traditional and old world Santa together on the same sheet and I love that one has blue eyes and the other brown. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I tend to favor the higher quality German scraps from the Victorian era and find that L&B </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
produced some of the best Santas out there so a majority of the images I'll be posting </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
are L&B but there are also a few other makers thrown in for some interest.</div>

This one below has been on my "wish list" for a long time; so, I just spluged and bought it.<br />
This A&M (Albrecht & Meister) sheet was made in Germany in the late 1800's or very early 1900's and with the seller also being in Germany it may not arrive till the New Year - but what a treat. <br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
I adore Victorian Santas due the the variety of looks you can get them in.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There is a wide selection of colors and styles, heads, full body and anywhere in between. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Many originals can be found on eBay and Etsy and there are also a few sources </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that have digital downloads of vintage Santas if you you don't want to pocket out </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the big bucks for a Victorian original.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There are also a multitude images available on the web that you can use to craft with, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it's just a question of searching and finding nice quality versions that have been </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
posted by nice folks who like to share.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope this has inspired you to consider collecting or crafting with Victorian Santa images.</div>

I love Christmas and all things Christmas, especially the odd items I come across as I collect.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This year my hubby spotted a truly fun set of Nativity rubber ducks and could not resist them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Naturally, they needed a way to be displayed, so I created one using a wooden cigar box and a variety of digital images which became my manger setting and storage case for them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope you enjoy this fun twist on a classic Nativity!</div>

I purchased my 12 piece rubber duck nativity figures at Hobby Lobby for about $5.00 on sale.</div>

If you don't have a Hobby Lobby in your area this set of duck figures can be found online from various sellers and retail for around $12.00 plus shipping.</div>

I only used 11 of the 12 figures in my Nativity since I did not think it was proper to have a pig in the scene - it's just not Kosher, so that little piggy was sent packing from my final scene.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
These figures are so cute on their own but I had to build them a home and here is how I did it.<br />

<i>update 12-25-12 (My Hubby just informed while sharing this post with family, that when I set up the nativity figures in the box and for this picture I confused the pink shepherd for Joseph; which is really the green duck with the beard</i> - oh, well, just another situation to giggle over)<br />

It took me a while on the computer to "build" the scenery. I used various elements from a variety of photos of ruins to get my stone walls, floors and ceiling. The view of Bethlehem you see in the background is part of an 1882 painting done by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Bethlehem_Polenov.jpg">Vasily Polenov of Bethlehem</a>.<br />
I created star and light beam digitally using a variety of Photoshop brushes<br />
in my digital arsenal and set it against a night sky scene I altered.<br />
<br />
After I digitally created each panel that would comprise my scene in the cigar box, I printed it on heavy glossy stock using a laser printer and backed each section with super heavy cardstock.<br />
Each panel was trimmed so it would fit snugly into place in the box so no glue was necessary.<br />
This will allow me to later replace or remove any of the pieces with ease later on if I choose.<br />

This is what the final illuminated star looked like alone.<br />
I really liked the way it came out so I saved it as a png file so I would have it in my<br />
collection of created stuff and I thought I'd share it with you other digital artists.<br />
I've posted a larger version of it on my deviantART account <a href="http://eveyd.deviantart.com/#/d5mzezy">HERE</a><br />
A special thanks to “<a href="http://redheadstock.deviantart.com/art/Light-Beams-Rays-Brushes-72493128">Obsidian Dawn</a>” for creating her brush set<br />
that allowed me to create the rays off my star.<br />
<br />
This is one of those elements that works best in digital applications<br />
(those using digital software like Photoshop)<br />
The darker the background the more the star and rays "pop" so use it on<br />
very dark backgrounds for the best effect. <br />

Photos of projects don't always show as well as they should, so I created a digital version<br />
of the assembled Nativity room so you get to see the details including<br />
how well the star pops on the background. <br />
<br />
My Mom is from Spain so many of my Christmas traditions revolve around<br />
<a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2010/12/christmas-nativity-magi-epiphany.html">Nativity scenes, Twelfth Night customs and the Three Wise Men</a>.<br />
Here in the States many think of Nativity stables like our barns; but at the time of Christ's birth, stables could be a variety of things such as a cave, a basement type enclosure below a family dwelling or a stone type enclosure. I wanted my Nativity to symbolize that "old world" version rather than the wooden stable you might be more familiar with - just in case you were wondering.<br />
<br />

Here are the photos I took after assembling my digitally created piece into the cigar box.<br />

Here is a view of the entire box with all the panels in place.<br />
The 4 side panels that comprise the walls, ceiling and floor were made about a 1/4 inch wider than the sides of the box so they could be folded back and form a "lip" around the scene.<br />
This helped to hide the second wood surround that is inside the box and it also gives me a bit of a handle on each to assist me in removing the panels if later on I should need to do that.<br />
All the panels are in so snugly that they stay in place on their own without glue and the lid closes easily, even with the folded over parts of the scenery.<br />

Though the Nativity looks best head on it can be viewed from the side as well.<br />
<br />
The same "box" concept can be done using any variety of boxes and if your box lid detaches then you can put it under the box or eliminate it from your scene entirely. That would then give you more placement options in how the "extra" characters are placed in relation to the Holy Family.<br />
<br />
Nativities have been a Christmas tradition in many families and as much as I love my traditional set and the antique sets my Mother has that will one day be mine; this is just a fun twist on celebrating the season with a nativity. It makes children of all ages smile. So don't be weary of a non-traditional nativity set if you see one, if it appeals to you get it and enjoy it.<br />
<br />
<br />
Wishing you all a safe and very Merry Christmas Season.<br />

Thanks to all of you who have sent me kind words and well wishes<br />
regarding the recent loss of my beloved cat Sherlock.<br />
<br />
Sherlock loved Christmas and spent most of his time under the decorated tree.<br />
This year seems a bit less festive without him under the tree and Gigi was missing him there too.<br />
We lucked up an found a "pseudo" Sherlock to place under the tree as a tribute him<br />
and I thought I'd share this snuggle picture with you.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
as my keepsake Christmas ornament to commemorate my wedding. </div>

At the time I could not believe I paid $32.00 for her but in hindsight I'm ever so glad I did.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

They had a large selection of hanky dolls that were more reasonably priced but </div>

Sleeves were created from coordinating vintage linen and lace. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
At the time of purchase there were about 20 other dolls in colorful garb using all manner of trims and accents to make them unique. Some of the dolls were dressed in patterned vintage handkerchiefs while others were in vintage handkerchiefs that had crocheted or lace edges. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There were so many pretty, wispy and frilly ones to choose from but there was only<br />
this one large bride made with a heavier linen napkin and I'm so glad I choose her.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I thought to browse the web to see if I spotted any other dolls like this one using<br />
the hankies so you could see other examples but I'm not having much luck,<br />
which is sad since it would make a wonderful project.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Here are a few hanky dolls with a different twist. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Rather than using clothespins as the doll, images of pretty ladies were used for </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the base instead and these are quite charming in their own right.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you do not have access to vintage hankys you could probably use pretty printed </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
paper napkins instead and then you would have a totally paper doll. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I look forward to giving it a try in the near future.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have my fingers crossed that I can spritz a decorative paper napkin with water, iron out the pre-packaged creases, then fold and press in the new decorative creases to get a similar look.</div>

This goth girl paper doll is based on a vintage Victorian L&B paper doll from my personal collection. I altered her digitally to get this fun Gothic, vampire look for Halloween so I decided to do something similar with her wardrobe as well. Many of the items in the dress-up sheet are real Victorian fashions from 1900 others are in keeping with the style.</div>

Yup,
that's right ladies - we are not the only naughty society in history. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There were some pretty interesting fetish garments available in the 1800

would have made your grandmother blush and these boots
were probably top of the list.</div>

Well as you can see I had a bit of fun dressing up my L&B jointed paper doll and I hope you enjoyed seeing how I did it as well as some of the fun Victorian Fashions items I used to do so.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I also hope you spend some time browsing the Metropolitan Museums website and other Museum websites for vintage fashions. It's amazing to see what our forefathers and naughty predecessors wore.</div>

With it being Halloween, I thought it would be especially fun to create </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a few altered dolls with a more "Gothic" look to them. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I fondly call them "Vampire Brides"; since they </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
have that pale "tied" to a Vampire look.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've also included some additional "black" doll part accessories </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that work well with the "Goth Girl" look.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope you Enjoy them! </div>

I've already posted and the sheet on the right is for the Goth dolls in this Halloween post.</div>

to the Goth-Vampire world and here they are.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Personally I find running my parts through a xyron adhesive machine to be the quickest way to get full coverage adhesive on the back of the sheets so they can then be bonded to a sheet of heavy weight cardstock. Spray adhesive can also be used or any other method you prefer to use.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just remember that if you are going to assemble your dolls with brads or eyelets they need the extra support from cardstock or light weight cardboard. This will give the doll greater stability and longevity after assembling; since the paper alone just can't handle the stress of moving joints and metal fasteners. </div>

Even cutting close to the edge with sharp scissors you can still get raw looking white edges especially around dark areas of your image. It is also easy to accidentally gouge or scrape part of the printed ink layer away as the edge of your scissors works around corners and sharp turns.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I find the best way to fix this when using glossy paper is by sponging on </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
some ink and using sharpie pens for detail touch ups. </div>

I sponged on the ink all around the perimeter of the image, on the thin side of the paper and on the top part of the paper very close to the edge in the dark areas like the hair where lots of white was showing. To hide additional marks that the sponge could not get, I used Sharpie markers in matching colors. Browns for the hair and a pale skin tone for the body and bodice.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

OK here she is, the third and final Prima Donna paper doll of the <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcAKD0wsOBWBP5TlEImRlSOUZo_SySMETnIgVRAft23OgBszlMAVf2ZJNYH4CtKtGROGkQTI7q0r1KgECDXsqezoIf2RQ4oc5QmvlA88ULSP5MkEVriuQJuGaHlDH2DRmO0lB1-EoNxg/s1600/_L&B+Prima+Donna+Doll+Set+2012+.jpg">L&B trio</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To my knowledge there are only 3 original "Prima Donnas" produced by L&B, the remaining articulated dolls in the series seem to have been ballerinas and not bloomer girls. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
These three ladies represent stage divas of their day.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The first one I posted was the "<a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2012/10/1880s-stage-performer-german-paper-doll.html">Red</a>" doll - Lillie "Lily" Langtry</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The second was the "<a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2012/10/antique-prima-donna-paper-doll-by-l.html">Blue</a>" doll - Della Fox and </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The third "Yellow" doll may be - <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Anderson_%28stage_actress%29">Mary Anderson</a></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
This is another vintage lady that I've been able to acquire a few times over the years. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It seems that the "Prima Donnas" aka Bloomer Girls were the most produced of L&B jointed dolls since they are the image you will most often find for sale today on the collectors market.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She is a sweetie to look at but as with my other vintage </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Once again I though she could use a more attractive hairstyle and her dingy whites needed to be tidied up a bit so her bloomers did not appear "yellowed" from age.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was very pleased with the changes and now had a good base so that </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I could create other versions of her in a variety of colors. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
*****</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm still in the "discovery" stage of whom this doll may represent and for a while I thought </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it might be <a href="http://collections.vam.ac.uk/search/?limit=15&narrow=1&q=%22Maude+Branscombe%22&commit=Search&after-adbc=AD&before-adbc=AD&name[]=43538&offset=0&slug=0">Maude Branscombe</a> but I decided she was a better candidate on a <a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2012/10/rare-vintage-l-articulated-paper-doll.html">different doll</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I currently have Mary Anderson as the top candidate for this yellow Prima Donna.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The timing puts it close since these
dolls could have been produced as early as 1888 </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and Mary Anderson had a
successful stage career in England and America up till 1889.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She chose to "retire" in 1889 at the age of 30, much to the public's disappointment.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Anderson_%28stage_actress%29">Mary Anderson</a> 1859-1940</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have to say this photo of her is what really captured my interest in the actress.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have found several images of Mary that suggest she could be the beauty L&B based </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
this paper doll on; but when I discovered this photo of her, I really could not put any </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of the other actresses of the day into the running. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Many other photos of Mary Anderson can be seen at the V&A Museum - <a href="http://collections.vam.ac.uk/search/?limit=15&narrow=1&q=%22Mary+Anderson%22&commit=Search&after-adbc=AD&before-adbc=AD&name[]=32278&offset=0&slug=0">HERE </a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope to one day know for sure who the yellow Prima Donna doll represents.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I would not be surprised if I guessed correctly and if I'm incorrect I can't wait see </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
photos of who she really is. It's just part of the fun in solving mysteries like these.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Even without knowing for sure what lady of the stage this paper doll is, she's a winner and I had a lot of fun in giving her several new choices in wardrobe color. After all a lady can only wear so much yellow till she has to have a change or go crazy.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Here is "Mary" with her new hairdo and several </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">new color choices for you to play with.</span></div>

This wraps up the vintage L&B jointed dolls I currently have in my collection and gives you several options on mixing and matching doll parts as you choose in creating your own dolls to craft with.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Several of the dolls in my collection of are different sized as can be seen from <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDOkkbNCE29BtYS8OgjajEYqY20GK25XS0w3z4QevEtbMHcFeZRH6TzJCEJgyLXirZb-CQNBR3kPf_UIf7m8vJPZxh1ErU1mNxU1Wzn8YcxAshQOlS95LCvqgkqT8JDbGIqF4_9yNimA/s1600/Vintage+Victorian+L&B+Littauer+&+Boysen+jointed+articulated+paper+dolls.jpg">this photo</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've done my best to digitally size all the "altered" versions so they are now similar in size but you may need to make minor adjustments in printing or trimming should you choose to mix the pieces up.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The vintage L&B jointed dolls were made in such a way that you could mix and match parts from other dolls of the same size. This way you could get a bit of variety out of your dolls depending on how many you had in your collection. The three Prima Donna dolls had bloomered legs and opera gloves on their arms and the L&B Ballerinas had bare legs with ballet slippers and beautiful arms with gold bracelets on them. There was even a special set of black stocking and slippered ballet legs with black opera gloved arms that could be purchased to enhance the look of your dolls.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

The "Blue" Prima Donna - Bloomer Girl was sold to me as the Victorian actress <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Della_Fox">Della Fox</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've purchased this doll a few times over the years; the first one was back in 2010 with the rarer "black" ballet legs and opera gloves. Sadly she got broken in transport due to the way she was packed and shipped. (These 100+ year old dolls are fragile and need extra TLC in handling).<br />
The most recent purchase was this summer with her correct blue Prima Donna<br />
bloomered legs and opera gloves as seen in the above right photo.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I just love the variety of ways you can find the L&B paper dolls when they become available for purchase. Some are assembled, others are unassembled, some have the correct original doll parts, while others have mismatched, broken or missing parts. And if you are very luck, you will encounter the treasure of the uncut sheet. In the case of the Prima Donna paper dolls that would be a set of all three bloomer girl's parts on an uncut sheet. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can see more about L&B jointed paper dolls and see several uncut sheets </div>

Once again I had a bit of fun digitally altering my vintage "blue" lady. I've given her a change in hair style and given her several new colors so she's not "blue" all the time.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Considering this vintage beauty is around 100 years old her colors are a bit dingy from age.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To the right is the altered version I've created of her. I've given her a new hair-do in a kind of coronet style because I think it suited her face. I've brightened up her colors, bleached out her "whites" and darkened up her shoes so they stood out a bit more.</div>

Della Fox was also well know for her comic portrayal as a boy/man in a variety of musicals.<br />
Those "male" roles required her costumes to consist mostly of tights and occasionally of trousers, which is why you can find so many vintage photos of her dressed in menswear.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The lower left photo is of Della as a "male" in The Little Trooper from 1896.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She became one of the biggest stars on Broadway in 1891 for her performance in "<a href="http://www.musicals101.com/usafter.htm">Wang</a>". </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Della played a male role in that comic, burlesque opera aka "<span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">operatic burletta"</span><a href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=5007019440540153">;</a><br />
which was set in Siam. The lower right photo shows her with De Wolf Hopper in costume.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I really adore the vintage L&B (Littauer & Boysen) embossed jointed dolls in my collection,<br />
but they increase in sentimental value the more I discover about them and the grand ladies<br />
of the past they represent. They seem to come to life for me when I view<br />
vintage photos of these legends of their day.<br />
<br />

I've previously posted about the <a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2012/10/l-articulated-paper-doll-sets-and-sheet.html">Prima Donna</a> paper dolls L&B (Littauer & Boysen) produced at the end of the 19th century and continued to manufacture into the early 20th century.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To my knowledge there are only 3 official <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcAKD0wsOBWBP5TlEImRlSOUZo_SySMETnIgVRAft23OgBszlMAVf2ZJNYH4CtKtGROGkQTI7q0r1KgECDXsqezoIf2RQ4oc5QmvlA88ULSP5MkEVriuQJuGaHlDH2DRmO0lB1-EoNxg/s1600/_L&B+Prima+Donna+Doll+Set+2012+.jpg">"Prima Donna" aka Bloomer Girls by L&B</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today I'm sharing the "Red" one from my personal collection.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This doll stands 14 1/2 inches tall in her assembled state. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She can be found in several sizes and this is one of the larger ones.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Supposedly Dennison sold a pre-assembled version of her in 1905 at 16 3/4 inches.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(the assembled dolls sold by Dennison had their limbs permanently attached with eyelets).</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Prima Donna paper dolls by L&B also came in a 9 3/4 inch size and the mini 6 inch size.</div>

The Pair of legs that came with this doll still had it sheet tag number still attached.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Originally this pair of arms and legs as well as the doll heads would have been sold by L&B in a sheet as a set of 3 dolls. Sometimes you are lucky and can buy uncut sheets of the Prima Donnas.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Depending on the style and size of the dolls the sheets have different numbers.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
L&B #2783 are 7 inch legs that are used to create the 14 inch assembled dolls.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>It is possible that depending on the year they were printed those numbers could be different </i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>but that's speculation on my part; since, I don't yet have multiple uncut sheets of the same parts to verify this possibility. I do know that some of the uncut sheets have circular id tags and others have rectangular ones; that too might be an indicator to the print date as well. </i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>I'm sure L&B's numbering system makes
sense once you figure it out; but here is an interesting example to mull
over. Here are two totally different sheets of limbs by L&B both
are #2781</i></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

I was tired of using my vintage dolls in their original colors too, so I created several </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
alternatives for a change of pace. I also wanted to give her a more pleasing hairstyle. </div>

L&B's articulated lady dolls were produced starting in the late 1880's and represented some of the top "stars" of the day. The images of those performers on these dolls would have been easily recognizable to purchasers at that time; just as an image of Marilyn Monroe would be known by most who viewed it today.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sadly 120+ years after the fact, these ladies of the stage have been a bit difficult for me to identify.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've found very little information about these dolls out there to help me with my search. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A few I've purchased had the names written on the back of the torso or the seller had an idea who the lady in question may have been, but other dolls have have sent me on quite a quest just finding possible identifications for them. This doll seems to be <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lillie_Langtry">Lillie Langtry aka "Lily" Langtry</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It appears Mrs. Langtry has two spellings for her first name and she signed her name "Lily" sometimes and "Lillie" at other times, so you may come across her name spelled either way. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Most of her "actress photos" show Mrs. Langtry when her name is printed on the card,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to muddy those waters a bit more; but it appears she went as "Lillie" in England and "Lily" in America. She was also known as the "Jersey Lily" so for this post I'm spelling her name as Lily.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Lily began her stage career in 1881 and was adored by the public. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She also led a rather notorious life; having many affairs, including her 1877-1880 </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
attachment to the Prince of Wales who later became King Edward VII . </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She acquired American citizenship in 1897 and her popularity on two continents </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
was so wide spread that The Who's 1967 song "Pictures of Lily" was about her.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The key lyrics in the song that inspires that belief is </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i> "Son, now don't be silly. She's been dead since 1929</i><i>...if only I was born in Lily's time."</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She has been a character in several novels and many scholars believe she is </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"Irene Adler" in the 1891 Sherlock Holms' story "A Scandal in Bohemia"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Her life story has also been portrayed in movies several times over the years.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'd say the lady defiantly had "Diva" status in her day and beyond, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
making her a prime choice for "Prima Donna". </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are two individual "LL" paper dolls in my L&B collection and as you can see they are just slightly different one from the other. L&B produced these dolls starting in the late 1880's and they continued to be sold for the next 20 years. I know they were still being sold in their pre-assembled with eyelet form in the <a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2010/09/1905-dennison-art-and-decoration-in.html">Dennison 1905 catalog</a> and I've had one source tell me </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
they were still for sale in the Dennison 1907 catalog as well.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I believe the parts for these two dolls were made years apart.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The upper doll is very bright and sharp in color-detail; and the pressboard it was </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
embossed and cut from is about twice the thickness of the lower doll. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The lower doll is also made of a clay composite pressboard but is of a much thinner weight. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Her colors are also of a softer palate as are her printed features. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Based on this I think the upper doll is older than the lower since her quality grade is higher.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They are both still great examples of L&B paper dolls just made at different times.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On an <a href="http://www.ekduncan.com/2012/10/l-articulated-paper-doll-sets-and-sheet.html">earlier post</a> I was pondering the possibility that this lower doll with the label on her torso may have once been owned by a collector who had these two very rare dolls I hope to one day own.</div>

I know it's a simple white label on the doll torsos but the size, shape, font, wording and even the zigzag looking left edge match. So I have to assume that at one time or another all three of these dolls passed through the same individual's hands -whomever that might be, is still a mystery???</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sorry - I wish I had nice images of these two to share with you but this is the only photo I've seen of them. If I'm ever fortunate to have them in my collection, I will share them with you too - grins.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm not sure how "white" the lace may have originally been on the doll when it was first printed but I suspect that somewhere in the past 120 years my paper dolls has probably "yellowed" a bit with age. Being "Bloomer Girls" I thought the white of her lace and pantaloons could use a bit of brightening up, so I spruced her up a bit in several ways till I got a new look for my old doll.</div>
