Dollhood is not…
(for the most part)
…barbie dolls, blythe dolls, sex dolls, “real” dolls, Bratz or American Girl dolls, grown women who look, dress up, or act like “dolls,” anime or modern ball-jointed dolls, cabbage patch kids, kewpies, matryoshkas, or the likes of chucky…
All those are grand, but this is meant to be a collection of images of all those other kinds of dolls especially if they’re captured in vintage illustrations, gold framed daguerreotypes, found snapshots, 19th century paintings, folk portraits, or advertisements from the 1950s.
(Though, of course, there is no denying a beautiful image of a vintage barbie or an unstacked row of stacking dolls...)
P.S.
Unless otherwise stated, none of the images on this blog belong to me.
Photos that are not reblogged from another Tumblr were found on the internet without the aid of scanning, copying, or uploading of images done by this blogger. Every image is credited with, at the very least, a click through link, but I do attempt to credit the original sources as often as possible.
To have a photo removed, request photo credit, or clarify a citation, please feel free to contact me at dollhood.tumblr@gmail.com.
Thank you!
