Hillsborough, NH All of us at the dollhouse are still coming down off the "high" generated by the outstanding auc- tion of the Doll collection of Dolores Smith back in May. Our crew made a dozen or more trips to the Smith home to pack up the dolls, yet we're still not finished, so Larry, Bob and I headed over to Candia to finish packing up the residuals of Dolores's collection. Reflecting back on the events of last summer, it will be a year in August, when Dolores' health started to deteriorate... and she lost her valiant fight against liver cancer passing away the end of October. The Dollhouse is just not the same without her... we are alive ... but sure could use an heart transplant! Her presence is everywhere: in the sweaters on her chair, to the jungle mocks under her desk. We have left these remnants of Dolores, in some ways a reminder of what was...she is gone but her spsirit is still present. I kind of like having her around as our guide, to help us continue the work she started... we often think, "What would Dolores do?" Remarkably, the August auction, primarily the doll collection of Ann Hastings, has been finished since early May, for the passing of our dear doll friend, Ann Hastings occurred around the same time as Dolores' and the dolls needed to be removed from the house ASAP. Dick Withington was especially fond of Ann, often interrupting an auction to greet her, "So nice to see you Mrs. Hastings!" And she would blush like a school girl at the special attention from the illustrious Mr. Withington! Over the years we often have had doll calls, from the heirs of well-known doll collectors... it seems that our name was often jotted in the margin of the will..."Have Withington sell my dolls". Old Dick, the tireless self-promoter, would an- nounce at a doll auction.... "Write my name in the margin of the will!“ And so many did just that. To- gether with Mrs. Hastings' dolls, additions from old doll friends have gone to the international doll convention in the sky... and Larry and I have deferred our retirement for another year. Both Ann and Dolores were New Hampshire based, were active members of the local doll clubs and frequented the local shows. The dolls were an important part of both families.... having a place of honor in every room of the house. Withington Doll Auctions were "not-to-be-missed" events and both col- lections can trace their ancestry to the Highway Hotel Concord, or to Holiday Inn, Nashua auctions. Ann, in her later life, had to depend on friends for a ride to the auctions, she was a bit too nervous for highway driving. She made every effort to come, if only for a few hours.... Most of the time she came late like she miraculously appeared in the audi- ence..... "Nice to see you, Mrs. Hastings!" I noticed that she would bid on a few choice items, and usually persist until she got what she came for. I recall, many years ago, Ann was bidding on a large (42" tall), vinyl doll known as "Daddy's Girl". I remember thinking , "How odd", to see this dignified Old gal, struggling to carry this voluptuous pre-teen to her car. On the loose side, she was disheveled, badly in need of stringing, and her arms and legs dangled every which way. Her bleached blond pony- tailed head, smiled cheerfully as if she knew that Ann somewhat of an 42” Daddy’s Girl authority on this doll...could appreciate her lineage as a member of the Ideal’s Patty Play Pal Family family! 2 Doll Cat Aug '19 Day 1 GREETINGS_Layout 1 7/23/2019 11:16 AM Page 3 Every Christmas, Ann sent out her Christmas package to a selected few and Withington's was priv- ileged to be on her "list." The package contained inspirational thoughts and photos of her featured doll family members..... along with an entertaining and informational poem she called a "Terse Verse". I re- call one Christmas, the featured doll was Patty Play Pal (PPP), to my amazement this iconic doll family of the 1960"s was sculpted by Neil Estern, the renown sculptor, famous for his bronzes of Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt, and many others including JFK and Princess Di. Like no other dolls of this pe- riod, the expert sculpting of these vinyl dolls ele- vated their status in the doll world to some of the finest vinly dolls ever made..... creating among oth- ers, the most life-like Shirley Temples of all! Franklin Roosevelt bronze Sculpture Ann was a woman of many talents, from a by NeilEstern musical family, there were TWO Steinway pianos in the living room... Surrounded by the audience of her life-like PPP collection. The (Ann) Hecker / Hast- ings Bandstand in Stark Park was Ann's gift to the city she loved, long been a popular gathering place in Manchester during the summer, bringing music to the multitudes. Music may have been her first love, but the dolls came into her life and occupied her world for more than fifty years. Probably inspired by her mother and grandmother, she methodically added to the collection, and systematically cataloged the name, date, origin and purchase price and almost all the dolls still retain their provenance. Her taste in dolls did run the gamut... from early Papier Mache or French to a hundred years of Kathe Kruse.. she even has the iconic Kruse Mannequin (standing along side the PPP collec- tion), and an example of the obscure of the Schlenkerchen.. the only Smiling Kruse, and the 4-foot Chase boy fit right in. There was a plethora of smaller dolls, too: Googlies, all bisque, French Fashions, and the names of Bru and Jumeau were well represented. A patron of the doll arts, Ann had many examples of the dolls of listed Doll artists: Emma Clear, Gertrude Flo- rian, Jane Bradbury, Dewees Chochran, RJ Wright, and among the many examples of dolls of the Royal Family is a set created by Martha Thompson. Living into her nineties, Ann had a lifetime in- tertwined with the dolls: attending doll club meetings and shows, and of course the Withington auctions, and years of study and research. With her vast knowledge and the ability to acquire anything, a few dolls on her wish list often accompanied her home to Manchester. You will be surprised at the diversity and quality of this lifetime collection.

    Rare world children Black dolls and their history By: Jolie van der Klis Antique black dolls are rare — I actually wanted to write this line last year, to tell the history of the dolls that we may remember from childhood. At the time, I waived it: I didn't want to throw any fuel on any discussion.*) Meanwhile, even much more has happened on the world stage, the brutal murder of George Floyd, one of the many victims of police prejudice. I could of course postpone the article again, but, as I wondered down-hearted: how many years will I postpone it? *) Note: This refers to an awkward debate in The Netherlands, about the altered tradition of the Dutch Santaclaus and his companion, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zwarte_Piet Exhibition in Paris It has been two years since Deborah Neff exhibited her unique collection of antique black dolls in Paris. Handmade from fabric and leather, flour sacks and buttons, by unknown Americans with an African background. These dolls were intended as play dolls: they can sometimes be seen in old family photos. Some are already 180 years old. Photo: press release exhibition at La Maison Rouge, Deborah Neff dolls Caricatures Manufacturers who made black dolls hardly existed at the time; if they were made, the dolls were gross caricatures. Like this doll, that has all the features of a tap dancer from the humiliating Minstrel shows. Photo: Detail undated wooden caricature Doll maker Leo Moss An exception to that rule is doll maker Leo Moss. In the early 1900s he made unique portrait dolls, all modeled after an existing child, the name of which has sometimes been preserved.

    CHRISTMAS AT GLENSHEEN: "Through the Eyes of a Child" By Ann Russell "Through the Eyes of a Child" was the theme for the 1984 Christmas season at Glensheen. Visitors and docents alike were treated to all that a child holds dear at this magical season: wonder, excitement, and — toys! Antique toys and dolls appeared under Christmas trees and in almost every room of the man- sion'. Mr. and Mrs. William Gooder, owners of the Gooder Antique Toy and Doll Museum, 1907 E. 5th Street, Duluth, Min- nesota, provided the largest part of the ex- hibit while the rest were taken from Glen- sheen's own collection. During self-guided tours, new and returning visitors had an excellent opportunity to study the toys as well as each room at their own pace. The appeal of toys to all age groups was evident in the increased visitor atten- dance this year. According to Director Michael Lane, "December's overall atten- businessmen, Sweet Adelines, the Birchwood The doll crib displayed in the Master dance figure of more than 5,000 was the se- Elementary choir whose members sang and Bedroom is also from the Glensheen cond highest since Glensheen's opening." danced, Abbey Minstrels, Bethel Baptist collection.

  • Dolls and Waste in Italian Children's Literature
    Treasure to Trash, Trash to Treasure: Dolls and Waste in Italian Children’s Literature Cristina Mazzoni A growing preoccupation with waste, trash, and obsolescence may be observed in Western societies beginning in the late nineteenth century and continuing throughout the twentieth and into the twenty-first. This phenomenon is largely due to the rapid and intense development of industrialization and consumer culture—the very movement that eventually prompted the birth, in late nineteenth-century Italy, of the industrial production of dolls.1 A reflection of this historical and societal correlation between dolls and trash, confirmed by connections that are also psychological and philosophical, may be read in several literary texts for children written by Italian women between the late nineteenth and the late twentieth centuries. In each of these narratives, the young protagonists own dolls that, though often on the verge of being dumped into the trash bin, play a crucial role in the formation of the protagonist’s identity—a process represented as shaped by both psychological and material forces. The connection made by women between dolls and trash in Italian children’s literature may be read as a culturally specific instance of the wider-ranging reflection on the role of trash in the formation of value, and even of the self.2 Certainly, psychological models of child development have much to teach us about the role dolls play in the formation of young people’s identity.3 While keeping these models in mind, my reading of dolls in Italian children’s litera- ture, however, relies more overtly on philosophical and social reflections on trash, such as those by Italo Calvino, Gay Hawkins, Greg Kennedy, and John Scanlan.

The course has been divided into sessions in which old dolls will be studied by type (images, idols, and early playthings; child, doll, and social realities; wooden dolls; wax dolls; papier mache and composition; china and parian; bisque dolls, cloth dolls; celluloid, metal, leather, and rubber dolls; and doll art in America) in basically the same chronological order in which they achieved popularity in the marketplace (1800-1925). The instructor is urged to employ a variety of teaching strategies in the presentation of the material. A mixture of lecture, slides, show and tell, and much student participation is encouraged. Handouts are provided whichcan be given to students at the end of each session. Brief annotated bibliographies appear at the end of each chapter,as well as a selected bibliography at the end of the course. Thecourse has been designed to introduce the beginning doll collector to the techniques employed in the manufacture of old dolls, to help the novice identify a doll of excellent artistic merit, and to acquaint the collector with some of the better known names in doll making.
