Description
7" H. tub. Seven dolls, representing little
children with chubby stomachs, are of one-piece
porcelain or bisque, standing with their arms
outstretched with curled fingers. Each doll has
painted hair and facial features, two with
painted shoes. Included is a German tin tub and
shower with unusual copper hot water tank and
recepticle hidden at back allowing the "shower"
to actually work. Excellent condition except some
paint flakes on tub platform. The dolls are
notable for complete variation of hair styles and
facial painting. Circa 1880.
