I got lucky on Ebay recently with a little lot of pipe cleaner dolls. The seller had FOUND them in a box in his attic (love that fact) and had listed them on Ebay.
I got them yesterday and they are even more charming in person. These are the fellows. I love the tiny celluloid (?) heads. The figures are only about 3 inches tall.
They have really cute details like the tiny, tiny flowers on the lapels and a little black button closure at the waist.
The boys came with some adorable girls.
They make quite a couple.Did you notice that each of the figures is carrying a small tube? I noticed that in the Ebay listing pictures. The seller did not mention anything about them, but I thought the tube may have some paper rolled up for a message. I was right.
Each of the dolls carries a small fortune in the tubes. I only looked at one since it is hard to put the fortune back in.
I think it was certainly good Ebay fortune with this purchase! (penny in background for size)
Good fortune indeed.
