Drove across the state to Lyrajean’s new condo on Saturday, June 3rd, and spent the night. We left very early on the 4th for Sturbridge, MA, and the doll\/teddy\/miniature show at the Sturbridge Host Hotel. We took about two and a half hours to get there. We turned around and had a late lunch on the way back and arrive around dinner time back at Lyrajean’s house. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

I didn’t bother with pictures at the show. If I had starting taking photos, I’d still be there! Silence at the 110 Grill, thinking she’s going to order for herself.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Mini artist teddy by Linda Kunz named “Jessey.” Best use of unusual plush color and star embellishments! I paid $25.00 for this.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Cottage Collectibles Maxie. I think it’s a mouse. $10.00.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I did not intend to buy a 1:6 scale kidsy, but I really like this very early Madame Alexander [on right]. This is before the faces got chunky and pursy in a bad way. She has something of the air of the Kewpie doll in her features. I like her surprised expression and messed-up hair. $33.00.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The dorklets got a WHOLE-ASS SWINGSET! This seems to be from 1955, a Vogue product constructed for 8″ Ginny dolls. The dorklets are between 8″ and 10″, but I thought it could work for them. The toy came with its original box and instructions, and everything was in very good condition. I paid $75.00, which I think is a steal, especially with the related packaging.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
