Last week, Mena at
The Sew Weekly shared a link to scans of Betsy McCall paper dolls from the 1950s. My eight year old self would have had a blissful afternoon printing and cutting apart these pretty paper dolls. I just had to share- hopefully some of you know a little (or big) person who will appreciate these!
1951
The scans are printable and are an adorable snapshot of changing fashion over the past several decades.
This is August 1955, the month my mother was born. Too cute.
Click here for the first ten years, and
here for additional decades into the 90s, with a few from the '00s.
I love theses, too - do you remember when these were in magazines? So fun!
