What 30 years of being played with, slept with, and loved the best looks like on a favorite doll!

Another view from yesterday’s story- Baby Doll’s sister in her box since 1979. Anna(6) set up the dolls for me to photograph and added the birthday card.

Vintage Yo-Yo Clown Doll Spared from Trash

Vintage Yo-yo- clown hanging around. Looking pretty sad. Full of dust.
Time to throw him out? V, we talked about things with a face! Fifty years of saving him, gave him a bath. Spared from the trash. Don’t remember really playing with him, just propped up on a bookshelf, flopped really. Colorful and jingles when you move him. The bells probably dangerous for a child. I think there are still people who make these yo-yo dolls and will check it out. He was just always there.
