Plastics

Here’s my childhood doll Theresa. She has a hard plastic head, a soft plastic body and legs and rubbery plastic arms. I got her around 1961. She has a crack in her head which is why she wears a bonnet and has lost some of her plastic eyelashes but still has her little tongue.

Here are some modern vinyl dolls. I used to get these from the Op Shop where I volunteered, bring them home, clean them up, dress them and take them back to be sold. Great fun!

These canisters which were popular in the 1950’s and 1960’s are made of hard plastic.

Storage drawers we use for doll accessories.

This is Monster. He is a toy that Naomi picked up somewhere. He’s made of that squishy stuff that feels nice to squeeze. Monster may turn up anywhere around our house at any time, you never know where he may appear.
