Doll Makers and Paper Dolls

The most popular material in Doll making is cloth and plastic. But you can use almost anything like wood or pottery, which was used in early doll making. One of the earliest places dolls have been found would be Egypt in Egyptian tombs. Most were made of wood or pottery for the wealthy and buried in child tombs. Some of the dolls have movable limbs and removable clothing.

Dolls are usually made for children but adults like to collect and make them. The United States began the industry of making doll in the 1860's. Once dolls were made of plastic the price came down making them more available for everyone. Now you can even have virtual dolls on the Internet. Of course this doesn't make everyone happy who want to handle and experience his or her own dolls and not just see it on the screen.

One of the most inexpensive doll is the Paper Doll. These dolls are made out of paper and have paper clothes that stay on the paper doll with tabs that fold over the doll. Paper dolls have been around for over 200 years.

Paper dolls can become collectibles and can be quite rare since they are so easily wrecked. The biggest producer of the paper doll was the McLoughlin Brothers, who started production in the 1800's and sold them to Milton Bradley in the 1920's. Some of these original paper dolls would be quite valuable today if found in good condition. Mint uncut sets can go from $100 - 500 today. Hundreds of people attend a paper doll convention in the United States each year.
