Stories
When I originally started this site, my sole intent was to document doll problems and how to repair them so that the dolls could be appreciated and enjoyed as technological marvels. As my site has grown, so has my appreciation for how much dolls and toys were a part of the social fabric of the 1900's. This part of the site is dedicated to documenting reminisces of how "playing" with toys connected siblings, friends, and multiple generations. Hopefully you will enjoy reading these anecdotes and will remember similar happy experiences of your own.
