Stay a while and enjoy our museum. With over 1,000 items to add to our museum over this next year, be sure to check back often. New items added monthly as we continue to grow our virtual archive.

FUN THINGS FOR YOU DO ?
VISIT THE COLLECTIONSDonally's Doll House is proud to present our vast and ever-growing doll collections. The collections are easily navigated as they are arranged first by company name, then the doll series an item belongs to. Collections include dolls from the late 1940s to some of the favorite modern dolls of today.
Some of the dolls you can see will include Vogue's favorite sisters, Ginny and Jill, Toni dolls by Ideal, American Character and Tonner, Revlons by Ideal and Tonner, Madame Alexander dolls including Cissy, Cissette and Alexanderkins, dolls of the world and storybook dolls. Modern Fashion dolls from Tonner and Ashton Drake Galleries, American Girl, and of course, a few Barbies and so many more. |
CHECK OUT OUR CATLOG SECTIONWith everything moving digital, doll references and identification guides are simply not published anymore, leaving a huge hole for information that we once used to identify our dolls. With over 200 catalogs, flyers, and pamphlets covering a wide range of dolls, we believe we will soon be one of the largest doll reference archives online.
Our catalog archive includes an almost complete collection of catalogs and printed materials for Vogue Ginny from the 1950's until they closed their doors in the mid 2000's. Other catalogs include favorite doll companies such as Effanbee, American Character, Gene, Barbie Collector, Carpatina, Ideal, American Girl, and many, many more. |
