This is a lovely book with two lovely young or teen age girls. Phyllis looks older than Brenda to me. This is from Saalfield and is #1744. The printed price on the book is .10, so I am assuming it is from the 1940’s – Pause to look up in Mary Youngs Saalfield book to see if I can find a year. It was reprinted in 1957 with a different cover, so guess I will stick with the 1940’s for my book.
There is a front cover, and 3 more pages of clothes which will be posted over the next couple of days.
Love these dolls !
I love the butterfly and roses border.
Glad to see you posting.
Very cute. Don’t the clothes look like Hilda Miloche’s work?
JUDY – yes, especially the white dress with blue flowers and a pink sash. Also thank you for letting people know that Miss America was by Tom Tierney. The sharing of knowledge is what makes the blog so interesting for us all. Marge
Just did a little search on Mary Young’s PD artist books, and find nothing relating to Hilda M and this book. In fact there was only one Saalfield listing for her at all! We can THINK she did the clothes if we wish. Love, Judy
Judy – What would we do without Mary’s reference books?
I refer to them so many, many times. It is interesting what you found out. Marge
Oh my! Yes, those books are at my fingertips every day! Thank you very much, Mary!
