Happy Easter!



Dying Easter eggs in the Louis Rich Tudor house. "I want the pink" said Dot to her brother."Don't spill" said Mother hastily. Strombecker furniture. Vintage dolls, does anyone know what they are or who the manufacturer is, bendy???



                            
                                
                                  Renwal plastic children's toys





"Did I remember the shredded coconut?" Alberta wondered in her kitchen...   "I want a p-nut butter sandwich" said brother. 

 Speaking of the 1950's... I was reading a Dick and Jane book to my Little Assistant who is in Kindergarten, "Look, look, look. See Dick look", I read. And she said, "Nana, I like the pictures... but why do they talk so funny?".

  1. I love this house and the 50s furniture. Very nostalgic. I agree with your little assistant. Dick and Jane did talk funny, but that's how we oldsters learned how to read, so it must have worked. In fact, I am still reading to this day!

  5. Hey Faby! We all go through cycles of creativity and being fallow. I am recycling this pic as I am taking care of my ex who had a hip operation and cannot photograph by toys! C

  6. Hey Kikka does the Easter bunny hop over and leave a basket by your back door Easter morning or are you the only little frog that does all the hopping? C

  7. The dolls are Shackman circa 1975. The book "Dollhouse & Miniature Dolls 1840-1990 by: Marcie & Bob Tubbs" says they are labeled "Copyright Shackman. Made in Hong Kong." and that they were dressed in various styles of clothing over the years.
