Old Doll
 
1 Attachment(s)
My mum has aquired some old stuff from a late uncle and I`m trying to find some info on it, most of it is personal stuff like medals etc. but there is this old "creepy" doll and can`t find any info about it. There is nothing written anywhere that I can find so just a picture, I`ve done a google image search that comes up with nothing similar.
Anyone remember having anything like it or know what it is?

Thanks Max, maybe home made then? Underneath the coat looks like leather. I`ll try for a better look tomorrow.

Looks Canadian ... the kind of outfit that would handle the weather we get 7 months of the year.

How interesting.
So it is a real antique.
Maybe you should be taking it to a David Dickinsons Real Deal if it comes to a local area....that is, of course, if you want to sell it.

It`s not mine Margaret, it was in an old suitcase that my mum got when her uncle died, there were quite a few interesting items from early last century and the war, including some Nazi playing cards (don`t have a pic of them though).
