SALE Pair of Vintage Molded Face Souvenir Dolls. Yugoslavia and Ukraine.

Dolls : By Type : Russian : Cloth

 

I love the faces on these two vintage souvenir dolls. The doll dressed to represent Yugoslavia is really wonderfully made with a molded stockinette face which is beautifully painted with side glancing eyes which are heavily shadowed on the upper lid. The detail in the face is really amazing on this doll. His hair is made of floss. The outfit is made of wool and is very detailed. His shoes are red leather. Underneath the back of the coat is a tag which reads "Near East Industries. My name is Hamilcar. My costume is Yugoslavian. I am dressed by the Refugee Women of Athens, Greece.

Hamilcar's friend is tagged on the back of his belt. The tag reads "Made in Soviet Union, 8088 Ukrainez." His face is also molded stockinet and he has a bit of yarn hair peeking out from under the straw hat he is wearing. His legs are wooden, and his arms raise and lower from the shoulder.

Hamilcar measures 8 1/2" tall, and his Ukrainian friend measures 7 3/4" tall. Both dolls are in excellent condition.
