Dont beat me -please :)

When we lived in germany when I was a little girl - I would get a doll from each country that we visited - which was just about all of the ones that were considered not to be part of the USSR at the time.
I should of kept the boxes these dolls came in but I did not. I know where half of them are from, can yall help me with the rest? Pretty please?


I know the last two - Norway and Wales but the first one is unknown and I've tried googling what her apron says and get nothing.


Same with this one. Its the first one I am unsure of, the 2nd and 3rd are of course holland and belgium



I am unsure on all three of these. I think that perhaps they represent the 3 areas of Germany (kinda like states if I remember correctly) there is one that I can pronounce but won't even attempt to spell since I cant even get it close enough for Google to figure it out.

Thanks so much ahead of time to those who try to help and those who do help!

ahh # 3 is from Oberammagau Germany (think thats the spelling according to mom) where THE passiona play is done every 4 or so years

group*

the first one in the first groupe with the Firenze apron, is from Italy. (pretty sure)

ahh and while I am thinking about it - if you live somewhere over-seas and are willing to do this. I will paypal $ if you are willing to get me a doll from where you live

Why don't you just buy them online?

I have tried that and have ended up with dolls that were marked incorrectly

100% sure that the first one with the apron is from italy. firenze is the italian name of florence. i am italian, I can say! :)

Just a question:
In the second pic.. the third doll, from Belgium... does she have lingerie on a stick?

Apart from that Im afraid I cant help...

lace umbrella

There's not terribly much to go on... Sorry, I haven't a clue. Have you tried looking at any doll collectors websites?

i wont say how, but i think the first one in 2nd picture is swedish?, i've seen that dress on a movie, and there were a troupe of dancers like that.

Is the one in the brown dress seriously meant to be a girl from wales? The traditional outfit of Wales is nothing like that, plus they would have brown eyes, not blue.

This is the tradional dress

The first picture, the one with the apron with a building on looks like a Venice doll

yeah, the 1st one in the 2nd picture is Swedish, I just googled that and they look really close to the one you have. score one for the memory!

Thank you!

yes she is supposed to be welsh .. mom thought florence (sp?) italy for the one with the apron

i posted up top lol i guess no one read it, but the one with the apron is from italy

thank you to everyone who helped I now have them all identified. I knew I could count on my bloopieland friends.
