<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4"><tr><td><em> COLORFUL CLOTHES - VERY LIKELY ORIGINAL! Most likely West African because of the contrasting patterns used.</em></td></tr><tr> <td width="100%"> Add this outstanding example of a folk Mammy doll to your
collection of black memorabilia dolls, or just dolls in general,
because it has everything: the embroidered face, complete
and colorful clothes and a well proportioned size. <p>The
maker's choice of contrasting colors and patterns make this
a lively and eye-catching doll. The costume makes me think
of the bright combinations of patterns and colors one still
sees worn by today's women of West Africa. </td></tr><tr> <td> </td></tr><tr> <td>Reference #: D175</td></tr><tr><td>Condition:VERY GOOD</td></tr><tr><td>Year:1890-1920</td></tr><tr><td>Country:USA</td></tr><tr><td>Maker:unknown</td></tr><tr><td>Height:12</td></tr><tr><td>Width:5</td></tr><tr><td>Weight:1</td></tr><tr><td>Title:late 19th/early 20th c. handmade Mammy doll</td></tr><tr><td>Style:self-taught</td></tr><tr><td>Materials:COTTON, STUFFING, ORIGINAL TEXTILES</td></tr><tr><td>Type:cloth</td></tr><tr><td>Location:Sharon, CT 06069</td></tr></table>
