These dolls from left to right are a #301 Emma, 310 Hannah and 300 who is now John Henry.
The doll on the right is a pouty face character, but unlike the first ones, this one is a bit later. Not as much detail in the carving of her face.
The dolls on the left are Dolfi, and were made in Italy. They were made in 1989 and 1990. The one on the right is a Melisse, sculpted by Maria Elena Bach
in 1990. They are also all carved wood. They also are put together with metal springs, but not the same type. The joints are not as strong as Schoenhuts. They do not have jointed wrists or ankles. They are still lovely dolls.
This is how I display my Schoenhuts. They are in room settings. I love to take them out and play with them, and not just leave them on the shelf. That is the most wonderful thing about the Schoenhuts. Made in the US starting in 1911, they are made of wood with metal spring joints. They will stand on one foot, and they are so well constructed that they have already lasted through generations of children.
I finally got a wonderful 19" Schoenhut #405. He is named Matthew Gilbert.
Dorothy Jayne after her restoration. She's not perfect, but I love her!
4 of my Schoenhuts setting the mood for the holidays. Left to right they are John Henry, Mary Elizabeth, Nettie Louise, and Emma Kate.
