This is a lovely set and was a gift years ago from Jenny Elmore.
The doll is in the black dress, the item on the right side is the lovely envelope this set came in.
I like the way the skirt comes around to the front, like she is posed to have a professional picture taken. Notice that lovely big fan in her hand. I really think we miss out dressing in jeans, slacks and polo shirts now a days. I used to love to get dressed up. I just noticed that the blue dress on the bottom has butterflies on it. Wow! How lovely.
The title of this one really caught my attention – my maiden name is Gibson, and the Gibson Girls were still remembered by a lot of folks when we were growing up. My sister and I aspired to be as pretty as the original Gibson Girls. Sigh. No luck there. :=} Thank you for the blast from my past.
Clytie – happy to bring some good memories. Paper dolls are really so much more than just a paper toy. They are what led me into my love of fashion designs over the long past years.
very pretty
