Sweet Set of Handmade Watercolor Paper Dolls old painted blocks marking where specific movements wouldA very sweet set of old hand painted watercolor paper dolls, featuring quite the spectrum of costumes, I believe meant to represent an international cast of girls in traditional dress, with a couple of boys thrown in for good measure.

Boy in blue is 5 5 8"
