This is a real real good shot and composition.Great find and nice how you put it all together.Personally I would have left out all the font on image.But that is me.

I love this doll, I was collecting a long time porceline dolls, but now we have no space anymore and I had to sell everything, I think my heart broke!!!! Excellent picture and I hope you get that sorted with the camera, I'm again halve back into poser, but it is still a mess!!LOL Hugs, Ute
This a little surreal artwork expresses a lot of feeling... A very impressive piece of art!!!
This is nice to see...treasured things from our family. I have my grandmother's scrapbook, along with all the old family photo albums. I hope to get them all scanned and copied to a CD before they fall apart! I'm home today with a backache...hard to sit in a chair right now, but had to comment on your image..too bad abt that Nikon cam of yours taking a saltwater swim []/;^(
very cool find.. wow, this is awesome. really interesting, & great shot !
Wow This is an excellent find sis:) Antiques and memories galore Vote n hugs Susan~
Absolutely gorgeous find Kimmers! I missed my great-grandmother quite a lot when she died, but I remember also having so much fun, and such a sense of awe, as my grandmother went through all of her old things. Your composition of this little treasure is absolutely beautiful, and so creative (as always wink) Interesting how much the doll's little shoes look like the shoes from the ad in the old paper as well. Excellent work! hugs
Fabulous story and find!!
Wonderful memories perserved through your story and image!
Poor Peggy! I'm definately sure that Peggy was in a much more better condition in the past! Collect all her parts and try to let repair her! Here Iin switzerland they would pay a lot of money for such an old doll! Excellent photography! All the best and a speedy recovery for your two kids! A V for the good old time!!
Impressive....!!!!
A magical find that whisks us away to an earlier age! Thanks for sharing this!
