DOLLS FROM ENGLAND (Welsh costume), GERMANY, U.S.A. and ESTONIA

Today I am listing a doll made by the well known British doll maker - PEGGY NISBET.  (It is one of the Happy Doll" series).  The doll was made in ENGLAND, but is dressed as a Welsh dancer (Wales).  I am also listing dolls from GERMANY, THE UNITED STATES, and ESTONIA.

I have recently acquired a collection of PEGGY NISBET dolls, which collectors of these dolls may find of interest.  (Please note: they are NOT for sale).  They are all dressed in national costumes of various countries.  I will be adding them onto my website as soon as possible, along with other foreign costume dolls.
For more information about the dolls, and more pictures,  please see the website.  Thank you.

I find the Sai Baba doll particularly interesting.  He is so full of character.

As you all know, summer time is a very busy time.  All the extra jobs - keeping the garden tidy, doing a bit of decorating and having a bit of a "clear out" etc., can be very time-consuming.
I personally have had a very busy year so far, and given lots of Talks on my doll collection, to various groups.  I have enjoyed every minute of it but I am now looking forward to listing more of my dolls onto my website.

The bottom photos are from one of my recent walks.  (I am making the most of the good weather!).
