Title: Eskimo Lady Doll
Post by: bob535 on November 29, 2011, 11:41:00 am

Can anyone give me some info on this Eskimo doll i have? I don't see any marks, and afraid to remove the leather clothing, because i don't want to mess anything up. She stands about 7" tall, and has sleep eyes.

If there is anymore info that you need let me know, and i will try to get it for you.

Thanks  ;D

I remember these from the mid-1960's. You could get them from different countries and there were boy versions that looked very much like the girls.

That is exactly what I think. My wife has many of her dolls from when she was a kid and has one like this dressed in Native American clothing with the same face. In 1960 she was 8.
