They're a reward for moving along in letting my feminine boyishness out as in this recent picture I'm wearing white girls knee socks with pretty bows on.
First up is Millie who as you can see is a magnificent 8 inch 'vintage' rag doll in her sailor uniform including woollen bloomers in pretty good shape.
In addition to that one here is her rehomed friend, Amy
Okay for feminine boys of certain chronological age this means something because she is one of the Holly Hobbie characters popularized in the works of Denise Holly Ulinskas, an American children's story writer.
The cat-loving, rag dress-wearing little girl in a giant bonnet and licensed to Knickerbocker Toys who popularized these rag dolls in the mid 1970's.
Amy is an original and had to be resewed carefully during her previous life but otherwise is in good rather than exceptional shape.
Be that as it may, these were the dolls my female friends played and now I have Amy to play with when I'm dressed in skirts.
