Big 23" Antique German Bisque Head Doll Queen Louise AM Doll

$235 USDBig 23" Antique German Bisque Head Doll Queen Louise AM Doll

Dolls:Antique
This big bisque girl is just delightful! I will describer her as best I can and you can see the many photos I have added. I love her in my china cabinet but have no more room for more dolls, sadly. She is 23" and marked on the back of her head. Her eyes have been reset and they are even and close smoothly, however, they need to be closed manually by tipping the rocker with your finger. I guess when they were set, they weren't loose enough, which at least holds them nicely in place! The body ...
Columbian Exposition Egg Antique Sewing Needle Case 1893 Souvenir World's Fair Collector

$120 USDColumbian Exposition Egg Antique Sewing Needle Case 1893 Souvenir World's Fair Collector

Antiques:Accessories
The Columbian Exhibition was held in 1893 in Chicago and many souvenir items were created for the over 700,000 people who attended. No doubt this was a nifty little item to bring home to an aunt or grandma and probably cost a mere few cents at the time! It is called "The Columbian Egg" and is marked Made in Germany on the bottom. The top comes off to reveal a little cylinder shaped thing that pulls up with the words "Place the stroke parallel with the number required". There is a small hole in ...
Large 22" Ideal Shirley Temple Doll Composition 1930's Beauty

$255 USDLarge 22" Ideal Shirley Temple Doll Composition 1930's Beauty

Dolls:By Brand Names
Here is a lovely and BIG Ideal Shirley Temple doll from the 1930's. She is marked on her head and with the Shirley Temple diamond mark on her body. From head to toe: She has been restrung and her small hairline cracks concealed. She has had NO repaint. She could use some bottom lip paint, but I prefer to leave compo dolls as original as possible. Her wig was full but very matted. I have cleaned it, conditioned it to prevent it from becoming more brittle over time, and recurled it. Some child cut ...
Three Doll Set 1980's Shirley Temple Dolls Poor Little RIch Girl and Heidi

$29 USDThree Doll Set 1980's Shirley Temple Dolls Poor Little RIch Girl and Heidi

Dolls:By Brand Names
I have such fond memories of the 1980's Shirley Temple dolls. They were one of my first memories of doll collecting when I was 13 years old. I remember going to the toystore and carefully picking out a special Shirley Temple from this particular line of dolls; they seemed so expensive at the time! For sale here are three from the 1982 and 1983 line. Two are from Poor Little Rich Girl and one is from Heidi. Instant collection for a kid; I would have been thrilled! :)
SALE Bisque Head Doll German Dollhouse Lady Miniature Maid or Cook

$35 USD SaleSALE Bisque Head Doll German Dollhouse Lady Miniature Maid or Cook

Dolls:By Brand Names
Small 4 1/2 fired bisque dollhouse maid or cook. Original clothing. Very cute and vintage; dates from 1920's or earlier. She has broken her leg at one point and someone glued it poorly back together. Looks like she had a finger chip at one time that someone also glued back on. Still a fabulous display doll. Marked with some numbers on the back of her neck but I can't pull her dress down far enough to see them without possibly tearing it. Apron trim has a separation on the bottom.
Madame Alexander Sound of Music Dolls Marta and Frederick 12" 1966

$45 USDMadame Alexander Sound of Music Dolls Marta and Frederick 12" 1966

Dolls:By Brand Names
Here are Marta and Frederick from the 1966 Sound of Music line by Madame Alexander. They are the 12" size with the character faces and are just adorable! Their heads are strung to tilt and pose. The bodies are not strung and their limbs are nice and tight. Both are originally dressed with tagged outfits, but as you can see, Frederick's has lost the flocking stuff off his shorts and he has lost his shoes. He looks like a real little imp! He has one little blue mark inside his palm. Marta ...
Composition Madame Hendren Baby Boy Whistler Stamped Body 1926

$25 USDComposition Madame Hendren Baby Boy Whistler Stamped Body 1926

Dolls:By Brand Names
Don't you wish all unmarked composition was this easy to identify? This Madame Hendren Whistler is stamped and dated on his body. He is about 12" tall and does not sit, but stands. Unfortunately, when someone repaired his head, they repainted his hair. BUT the rest of his paint is in remarkably good condition. I don't see any issues with it flaking, etc. I'm not sure how he "works" but he doesn't seem to whistle any more.,
Effanbee Sweetie Pie Composition Baby Doll Flirty Eyes Vintage 1940's

$50 USDEffanbee Sweetie Pie Composition Baby Doll Flirty Eyes Vintage 1940's

Dolls:By Brand Names
Effanbee baby 1940's with flirty eyes. She has a caracul wig which is not in good great shape but with a bow or bonnet she'd be cute as anything, especially under a Christmas tree! Looks like someone tried to start a repair on her but stopped - she has a little paint touch up on her arms but nothing on her face, features or elsewhere. She has some crazing on her legs and very light crazing on her face. She is very cute and cuddly! She is about 18". Baby delivered promptly to your doorstep, ...
SALE Giant Shirley Temple Baby Type Composition Mama Doll 1930's 27"

$49 USD SaleSALE Giant Shirley Temple Baby Type Composition Mama Doll 1930's 27"

Dolls:By Brand Names
From an attic comes this gigantic baby doll who's been waiting for many many years to be rediscovered! It's really more of a toddler by its size - over two feet high. She has top and bottom teeth and blonde hair like a baby Shirley Temple doll and it was mostly likely sculpted by Bernard Lipfert, same as the Shirley dolls. This baby is unmarked and is being sold AS IS in the hopes that somebody can help her. Good news is that her limbs and body are tight and strong, although there are two small ...
18" Composition Girl Doll 1930's All Original with Braids

$45 USD18" Composition Girl Doll 1930's All Original with Braids

Dolls:By Brand Names
Here is a wonderful 18" composition girl from the 1930's or early 1940's. She has glass and not plastic eyes, so she wouldn't be from the later 1940's. She is all original with her dress and attached underwear, socks and oilcloth shoes. She has some damage to one shoe. She had two small cracks under her nose and next to her eyes, which I have filled. Other than that, she has been untouched. I really adore the little spitcurls on the top of her head held by two small barrettes. She has a couple ...
SALE Small All Bisque Doll Dollhouse Boy Germany German

$20 USD SaleSALE Small All Bisque Doll Dollhouse Boy Germany German

Dolls:Doll Houses, Miniatures
2 3/4 inch all bisque little dollhouse boy. Very cute; Unfortunately, his clothing could use some repair though. I can't see any marks on his neck but he is not like the cheaper painted Japanese bisque. He is fired bisque; nice cheek color. Probably dates from the 1920's. I don't see any flaws on him.
20" Kid Bodied Jointed Composition Doll Dolly Face Like Bisque

$75 USD20" Kid Bodied Jointed Composition Doll Dolly Face Like Bisque

Dolls:By Brand Names
Here is a very unique doll. She has a composition head and compo limbs and kid body. She is a dolly face, similar to the bisque dolls of the time, but was likely made to be more durable option, especially after WW1 when Americans were reluctant to buy German goods. She is unmarked but could possibly be marked lower on her shoulder plate. Since her body is in such good condition, I didn't want to stretch her kid to find out. She's a very nice quality - no damage to the body except for a little ...
SALE Vintage TootsieToy Mother Goose Set with Little People Display Box Like Fisher Price

$55 USD SaleSALE Vintage TootsieToy Mother Goose Set with Little People Display Box Like Fisher Price

Collectibles:Toys:Fisher Price
This is the cutest little Mother Goose set that rivals the Fisher Price sets of the time! The cars are diecast metal, as Tootsietoy cars were, with plastic tops and plastic little people. The set is missing one person and the pull string for the front. It has the display box which is crushed and not in great shape but it can be propped up for a REALLY cute display. The graphics are just adorable! The set includes the pieces shown - the people are just a little smaller than the Fisher Price ...
Pair Vintage 1930's Oilcloth Doll Roller Skates Shoes Shirley Temple or Patsy

$39 USDPair Vintage 1930's Oilcloth Doll Roller Skates Shoes Shirley Temple or Patsy

Dolls:Doll Clothing, Accessories
Here is an adorable pair of doll roller skates. I tried them on my 18" Shirley Temple doll and they fit well. They measure 3" long and about 1 1/2" at the widest part. They are in nice condition except they have a little pink near the soles (probably from the soles.) It's not terribly noticeable, but I tried to photograph it. They are really cute!
Pair Sterling Scottish Thistle Pins and Earrings Four Pieces Amber Rhinestones

$55 USDPair Sterling Scottish Thistle Pins and Earrings Four Pieces Amber Rhinestones

Jewelry:Vintage:Sets
This item is a set of Sterling Scottish-styled Thistle (or Acorn?) pins and earrings. The round pin and matching earrings are marked WBs Sterling Silver. There are amber glass acorns or thistle buds on all of the pieces and the Round pin has one loose bud or acorn as does one of the earrings. The bar pin is also marked WBs Sterling Silver. The bar pin has a piece of one leaf broken off and missing. I did not notice this at first, but it is damaged, so I am just including this pin with the other ...
REDUCED 1930's Vintage Metal Truck Wyandotte style Wooden Wheels

$45 USD ReducedREDUCED 1930's Vintage Metal Truck Wyandotte style Wooden Wheels

Collectibles:Toys
This item is an unmarked steel truck with wooden wheels. I believe it is a Wyandotte from the 1930's, or at least in that style. The truck is approximately 6 inches long. I have other trucks listed, but this one is green . it shows some wear and some paint rubs and a little rust as photographed. It has a little split or cut at the front of both front fenders...not sure, but I think this was factory done? See photos.
SALE 1940's or 50's Lionel Illuminated Station House 132 Vintage Train Accessory

$30 USD SaleSALE 1940's or 50's Lionel Illuminated Station House 132 Vintage Train Accessory

Collectibles:Railroadiana
I don 't know much about Lionel, but this was supposedly made post WWII. It is marked 132 Lionel Illuminated Station on the bottom. It seems to be in good condition but I have no idea if or how it works! Seems to be a nice vintage piece for a Lionel set!
Franz Porcelain Art Giraffe Vase Signed 15" Perfect

$145 USD Offers ConsideredFranz Porcelain Art Giraffe Vase Signed 15" Perfect

Collectibles:Decorative Arts
Here is an amazing Franz Porcelain art vase in the form of a Giraffe and baby. It is signed on the base (see photos) and is without damage. It is LARGE - 15" tall and not a reproduction or imitation. Offered here less than selling price on other sites because I don't want to store large, breakable items in my home of four children. :) Unfortunately, I can only ship Priority on this, as I want to be sure it doesn't get banged around in the world of Parcel Post. If you are in a zone far from us, ...
SALE Rare Forbidden Fruit Vintage Mushroom Set Non Fruit Theme Brown with Amber Rhinestones

$105 USD SaleSALE Rare Forbidden Fruit Vintage Mushroom Set Non Fruit Theme Brown with Amber Rhinestones

Jewelry:Vintage:Pins/Brooches
This item is a rare vintage Austrian lucite and rhinestone Forbidden Fruit brooch. The pin is in the shape of a mushroom, or technically a pair of mushrooms. Forbidden Fruit jewelry is harder to find in the "non-fruit" themes, and the mushroom is a harder to find piece. The pin is 2-1/4 inches high and the lucite is rootbeer colored with vivid amber rhinestones.
SALE Marx 1950's Lazy Day Farm Vintage Metal LithoToy with 67 pieces

$35 USD SaleSALE Marx 1950's Lazy Day Farm Vintage Metal LithoToy with 67 pieces

Collectibles:Toys
Here is a FUN and vintage Marx farm set - marked with the small Marx circle on the side. It consists of a metal barn with the pieces shown. I believe it is not complete, as there is no silo and I think there should be a chicken coop, but there are a LOT of pieces here! Cow, calves, horse, colt, goat and kids and pig with piglets. There is a garden that can be "planted" ( there are more plants than strips of dirt, so that is missing) and lots of great extra small accessories! See photos for all ...

Doll Pair Shirley Temple Dolls All Porcelain Artist Dolls 1988

$18 USDDoll Pair Shirley Temple Dolls All Porcelain Artist Dolls 1988

Dolls:By Brand Names
Two all porcelain Shirley Temple dolls. They stand about 12" each and are signed what looks like "carly 1988" on the backs. One is in Wee Willie Winkie and one in Stand Up and Cheer. No damage. VERY heavy dolls for their size as they are ALL porcelain and strung. I don't know anything else about them but they are interesting as far as Shirley Dolls.
Two Sindy Dolls Ballerina and Nude Barbie Friends Vintage 1970's

$20 USDTwo Sindy Dolls Ballerina and Nude Barbie Friends Vintage 1970's

Dolls:By Brand Names
I don't know much about these two gals, but the second is sort of a throw in because of her poor condition! The first is a ballerina Sindy and she does have jointed ankles. Her leotard has some spots but I didn't try to clean it. She has a plastic knob at the back of her head. I have no idea what it is - it is part of her head it seems originally and is not removable. Other than surface dirt, this girl seems to be in pretty good shape. However, someone took a pen to her Sindy companion. Maybe ...
REDUCED Madame Alexander Composition 1930's Princess Elizabeth Or Snow White Doll needs tlc

$32 USD ReducedREDUCED Madame Alexander Composition 1930's Princess Elizabeth Or Snow White Doll needs tlc

Dolls:By Brand Names
I have this cute little 16" Madame Alexander Princess Elizabeth for sale. She came to me nude with a really bad new wig. I removed the wig and the few hairs adhered to the glue on the head are jet black, indicating the original wig color. She has no eyebrows, but she has three little eyelashes on the corner of each eye and I'm wondering if this was a Snow White. (She has brown eyes as well.) She has lots of craze lines which I used a concealer on but did not do any repaint on her; I'll leave ...
10" American Character Vintage Toni Doll Clothes Suburbanite Outfit 1958-1960

$39 USD10" American Character Vintage Toni Doll Clothes Suburbanite Outfit 1958-1960

Dolls:By Brand Names:American Character
10" American Character Toni doll outfit "Suburbanite". It includes the pieces shown - missing shoes, but if I can find a red pair of "fake" shoes, I would be glad to include those. Outfit appears to be in good condition but does have pinking to the cotton top of it, probably from the red lining inside the jacket. Nice outfit - very vintage and cute. Made from 1958-1960. I will be listing more Toni outfits from my own collection - and I can combine shipping.
20" American Character Sweet Sue Doll in Original Dress and Hat

Here is a nice American Character Sweet Sue or Toni from 1958. She is in very nice condition with hair in the original set and original earrings. Nice facial makeup and dress in nice condition. She does not have any underthings or stockings/shoes. She has a little bit of yellowish or light brown discoloration spots on her feet, probably from shoes, which wouldn't be visible with stockings and shoes. She is a great doll and just in time for Christmas!

Collectibles:Kitchenware

SALE Set Unique 1960's Disney Pipe Cleaner Characters Mickey Mouse Goofy Donald

$25 USD SaleSALE Set Unique 1960's Disney Pipe Cleaner Characters Mickey Mouse Goofy Donald

Collectibles:Toys
Three unique Disney collectibles. I'm actually not sure if they are authentic Disney, but if not, it's no doubt that the Walt Disney company put a stop to it pretty quick because they are direct copyright violations if they aren't real! They are unmarked and consist of pieces that can be threaded through pipe cleaners to make bendy figures. They can be mixed and matched- only missing piece I think there is would be Donald's hat. These were bought from someone who had them as a child in the mid ...

Collectibles:Decorative Arts
Two vintage Mortens figures - black (chow?) dog and Springer puppy. The chow needs a tiny touch up on the tip of his ear where there is a very small chip. The springer puppy has typical crazing lines under the glaze and a little chip on his toe and underneath. See photos. Two for one special on these -they display very well and are so cute!
