The Registry
We know that there were 90 dolls Display Series Dolls in all – three sets of 30 or three of each one. Where are they today? It’s logical to think that all 90 – sadly – no longer exist. It’s confirmed that one doll no longer has her dress, as it turned up on another doll. But how many of the incredible Display Series of the Effanbee Historical Dolls are still out there? This Registry seeks to identify all those that are confirmed to have survived and are in the safe hands of a collector or museum. Can you add to it? If you can, please don’t hesitate to contact us and report your find! We’d love to hear from you and add your doll to our list.
