Doll Making Moulds for Nora the Gibson Girl
This lot comprises a collection of doll making moulds, specifically designed for creating a 17-inch tall doll named Nora, styled as a Gibson Girl. These moulds would have been used in the process of creating porcelain or composition dolls, allowing for the reproduction of the Gibson Girl aesthetic, popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The moulds appear to be for various doll parts, including the head, limbs, and potentially the torso, enabling the creation of a complete doll figure.
Condition and Collectibility
The moulds are presented as found, with signs of age and use consistent with vintage doll making supplies. While the exact number of pieces is not specified, the lot appears to be substantial, offering a collector or doll maker a comprehensive set for reproducing the Nora Gibson Girl doll. These moulds are of interest to collectors of antique doll making tools, enthusiasts of vintage dolls, and those interested in the art of doll sculpting and restoration.
