Description
This charming one page paper doll is from the Ladies Home Journal September, 1910.  It is one page, titled "Lettie Lane's Around the World Party in Which Her Married Sister Sends Her Pictures of a Russian Girl and a Russian Boy".
The dolls feature wonderful costumes that are titled as to what they were and which doll they belonged to, since they would have been strange to a child in the Victorian era.  They were created by Sheila Young, who created Lettie Lane, Betty Bonnet and others for the magazine for several decades.
This page is in good vintage condition; it is made from a heavy paper, that is fragile (later ones were made from a thinner paper).  It has browned a bit with age, and hs some very slight wear along the edges.  The piece has a faint sticker discoloration at the top left.  The dolls were meat to have an "easel" attached to the back, so they could free stand.  It is a beautiful set of a scarce paper doll.  There is one very tiny closed tear along the right edge, that I have repaired on the back with acid free paper tape.  This is tape that was recommended to librarians that I used as an antiquarian book dealer to repair antique books.  It is made from a very thin, translucent paper that is almost invisible when applied.
It would be charming framed, or just to collect.  I have lots of others for sale, so take a look!

Shipping
All items are shipped within 24 hours of payment! I try and recycle packaging materials as much as I can. I hate adding more garbage to the environment; if you receive a box from me that has been used before, I am "recycling". I will make sure it's sturdy and the item well packaged. I will ensure your item will arrive in good condition, but the box may not be pretty (or it might be - I have to buy boxes, as well). All shipping within the US is free to you. All my packages are tracked, but if for some reason you don't receive your item or it arrives broken, I will refund your money.
