It seems that Spring has a special meaning 

for all of us this year. But even as we turn 

to new beginnings, there are those of us 

who cherish the past. Historians would 

say that we must know what went before 

if we are to understand the present, and 

that is certainly true. But for collectors, 

there is a simpler rationale. It is nostalgia 

for a gentler time. Enjoy Dollmaster's 

Wonderland, Spring 2010, grown-up gifts 

and collectibles celebrating yesterday's

D e b b e e Th i b a u l t 

The thing about 

good folk art is that 

it transforms the 

ordinary. Odd little 

twists and turns 

of design present 

the commonplace 

in a whole new 

perspective. So 

it is with Debbee 

Thibault's 

interpretation of 

the classic children's 

rhyme. An 18th 

century style Mary 

with a wonderful 

character face and 

well-detailed costume 

stands alongside her little lamb, each painted with 

graceful aging techniques. Designed, made and painted 

in America in the artist's studio, each signed and dated.

T h e Pr i n c e 

Of course, every Mom knows 

that her little boy is a prince, 

and this shy yet impish 

fellow from the workshops 

of American artist Debbee 

Thibault seems to be 

trying to prove the point. 

Yet his toy crown and 

angel wings are a bit tilted, 

betraying a less-princely but 

more-appealing personality. 

The Prince folk art figure 

is classic Thibault, utterly 

charming at first glance 

and then compelling 

and meaningful 

when you look 

again. Hand-sculpted 

and painted in her 

California studio.

Dollmasters introduces Uncle 

Sam! 

The phrase "Uncle Sam" was first coined 

during the War of 1812 as dedication to the 

man who fed the troops, "Uncle" Sam 

Wilson (guess what he looked liked!), 

and for nearly 200 years it is a term 

synonymous with the United States. As the 

bi-centennial of Uncle Sam approaches, 

Dollmasters is proud to dedicate this page 

to our nation’s symbol featuring the works 

of renowned American artists like R John 

Wright and Debbie Thibault.

The famous illustrator, Palmer Cox, introduced his 

Brownies in 1887 in a series of children's books. Since that 

time they have been made into many forms of popular 

culture from napkin rings to postcards. Now the celebrated 

American artist introduces his interpretation of the 

Brownie characters, to be issued one by one over a period 

of time. Uncle Sam, the patriotic Brownie, is made of finest 

all-wool felt with jointing at the neck and shoulders, and a 

secure wire armature to allow for self standing. Every detail 

is perfect, including his incredibly tiny fingers and feet, just 

like the original drawings. A Dollmaster's Exclusive from a

The Br o w n i e s 

I'm called a dude 

because I show the 

fashions, and good 

form, you know. 

A sailor brave 

who sails the sea, 

And nothing fears, 

you'll find in me 

The Brownie Band 

Utilizing the Scottish highland folktales of his 

maternal ancestory, a then unknown Canadian 

artist named Palmer Cox created a group of 

playful sprites known as the Brownies and he 

introduced them to the world in February of 1883 

in a children's periodical, St. Nicholas Magazine. 

Like the greats, Rose O'Neill and Johnny Gruelle, 

Palmer Cox filled his world with a wide array of 

fanciful characters, and like those greats, Palmer 

Cox now finds his works immortalized by the 

contemporary great R John Wright. 

Each Brownie is an entirely hand-made wool-felt 

doll from R John Wright and each is specially 

designed with heavy-wire feet to stand unaided. 

Each is a numbered limited edition of just 250 

and comes in a fanciful presentation box with a 

certificate of authenticity. 

T h e Du d e 

First appearing in the 

1887 "The Brownies, 

Their Book." by 

Palmer Cox, the 

whimsical Dude 

is one of the most 

recognizable Brownies 

ever, and why 

shouldn't he be, for he is the one who shows the 

other Brownies what to wear, though honestly, 

they don't seem to listen much. 

The Brownie Dude is made of the finest all-wool 

felt and wears a natty outfit consisting of cuffed 

trousers, waistcoat, stiffened collar with bow tie, 

and swallow-tailed jacket as well as a matching 

top hat and, of course, a hand-carved wood cane 

and a gold plated monocle. 

Produced in just 250 pieces, The Dude is a limited 

edition exclusive to Dollmasters and will be 

presented with a signed and numbered certificate 

of authenticity. 9". SD-1113. $475. ♥

The Egg As Symbol L a d y b u g 

The egg has been called "the most perfect 

thing in the universe". It is considered 

the symbol of eternity, posterity, rebirth, 

mystery and magic. Eggs have been 

buried under buildings to ward off evil. 

In 18 th century France, a new bride 

traditionally stepped on an egg before 

crossing the threshold of her new home. 

In 1883 the Russian craftsman Faberge 

was commissioned by Czar Alexander III 

to create a perfect egg-shaped jeweled 

surprise for the Czarina and over the 

next several decades Faberge designed 

several dozen more; the "Faberge eggs" 

now rank among the world's most 

precious treasures. Begin your own

windows open on either side to reveal a velvet

ornamented with gilded beading, triple rows of seed 

pearls, and faux-diamonds. When wound, "I Will Always 

Love You" plays, and the egg revolves around and

Searching for a very special wedding gift? Here it is. According to 

tradition, the Christmas tree for a newlywed couple should include 

twelve ornaments each symbolizing a different aspect of marital bliss. 

Among the twelve blown glass ornaments are a butterfly, a house, an 

angel, a bluebird, a basket of fruit, a tea pot, a fish, an acorn, a heart, 

a bottle of wine, a rose and even Santa. The set comes in a lovely 

white lined gift box 

perfect for wedding 

presentation, along

From a privately owned French wedding museum come 

antique 19th century French wedding globes known as "globes 

de mariee". Each young bride and groom chose the objects 

to place inside a globe that would symbolize their union and 

their dreams, including mirrors, birds, ivy leaves, and flowers, 

and so important was the tradition that the globe de mariee 

("the bride's wedding globe") lived in a place of honor in the 

home throughout the marriage. Each of our wedding globes, 

which make elegant and completely novel gifts for wedding 

or anniversaries, comes with its own antique base and globe 

and certificate of authenticity. Each is different, but you can 

expect to receive one similar to those shown. We will include 

a complimentary copy of Florence Theriault's book "Memories 

of a Marriage" recounting the legend of the globes.

She was an extraordinary 

American illustrator from the 

Philadelphia school of artists 

that bloomed in the early 20th 

century, and is best known 

for her endearing images of 

children. Dollmasters has 

discovered a cache of original 

lithographs of her art work, 

printed on fine heavy stock 

paper. Each bears the title of 

the piece, the name of the 

artist and the copyright stamp 

of the lithographer, Gutmann 

& Gutmann. These were 

printed in the 1920s. Because 

these are originals, you should 

expect some minor spotting 

at the edges or bent corners, 

but each image is perfect and 

beautifully preserved. Very

May Day 

Perhaps no holiday in the world is as widely celebrated and yet 

as widely variant in its cultural traditions as May Day. While 

some of the more classic traditions include dancing around a may-pole 

and crowning a May Day Queen, more contemporary societies such as 

50s America celebrated by placing small baskets of gifts anonymously 

on neighbor's doorsteps. Start your own May Day tradition with

You just know that your sewing skills 

could create a wonderful folk art doll 

and costume, but you're pretty sure 

that your painting skills couldn't create 

a face that meets your ideal. The 

superbly talented American cloth doll 

artist Susan Fosnot has an idea that will 

solve that problem. She has oil-painted 

the doll face on canvas ready for you to 

fit on the rest of a doll that you assemble. All of the materials and instructions needed for the entire doll and 

costume are included in her kit along with the painted face. In her own words, "I painted the face myself, and 

each one is a little different from all the others. I feel that we are making this doll together. I have done my 

part and now it's your turn!" We have only a few of each kit so order quickly. Makes a 21" doll, each face signed 

by the artist.

As each piece is hand-painted, some minor 

variations in colors from the pictures shown 

could exist.

He's no softy, but he sure knows the meaning of 

"sweet". This paper-mache candy container bear, with 

expressive upturned nose, in the 1930's style, has a 

flocked brown finish and glass eyes to give him a "real" 

teddy bear appearance, but remove his head and he's 

a hollow candy container through and through. 14"H.

A fitted bodice – the better 

to show off the three bands 

of fine lace interspersed 

with narrow vertical tucks 

– is framed by a ruffled 

lace collar and set-in waist 

band with lace overlay. The 

design is repeated at the 

back bodice. The gathered 

skirt features two bands of 

lace separated by three rows 

of narrow tucks at the hem, 

and the same decoration 

is repeated at the sleeve 

edges. Generous fullness at 

the sleeve shoulders lends 

softness to the look. A full 

bonnet with box-pleated 

border and bow is included.

shoulders, and cuffs, and there is a wide standup 

lace collar and cuffs. Muslin lined for shape.
