RARE early BABYLAND RAG, antique cloth, TOPSY-TURVY double-sided doll 12
From an extensive private collection… This darling, original two-in-one, “topsy-turvy”, “Topsy & Eva” , black and white cloth doll, circa 1908, is a very hard to find example of this charming double-doll. They are 12″ tall, all stuffed cloth and manufactured by Babyland Rag and shown in the 9th Blue Book and on pages 61-67, “Cloth Dolls Edwards. They have beautifully printed, photographic type faces with printed blond hair on the white child and black hair on the black child. They wear all their original (bias trimmed) pretty red plaid clothing, matching plaid printed prairie bonnet with ruffle , red bandanna as well as the original trimmed white apron top. Both have sweet expressions and movable arms with mitt-type hands and separate thumbs (the black doll hands need mending, fabric age split in back of bonnet, hard to see). The plaid printed skirt can be flipped to cover the opposite doll. It looks as if the black doll was the most played with in this case. Whatever their origin, these exceptional dolls still retain all of their charm despite their age related darkening. (loc 51) They are in generally good condition (although needing cleaning) with no stains, fading or repairs and are from a smoke free home.
