Robert, Murph, Mitch.
I think you guys are me but born at different places and times.
I was another that explored the hills and valleys of eastern Ohio and eastern Kentucky.
Started in Ohio when I was six. Moved to Georgia when I was forty one and hill exploring
stopped because there are not any hills in southeast Georgia. Well there are some small
inclines that the natives call hills.

What do you think has more value today? That chair or her doll?

At one time I might have said the doll, but I've lost track & touch with both of those markets. That chair in perfect condition might be a real keeper!

You can't give the chair away. Today people would rather have bitcoin. If that doll is a no name then $40.00. Victorian stuff fell out of style.

Da doll is a zombie, and the chair is for a zombie to sit upon. (Is that harsh?)

And if ya ask me, the poor kid (I'm serious here) looks like she is well aware of the life of service she is facing ahead, either as a domestic, or as the hapless wife of some stuffed-shirt husband, constantly having to crank-put babies, cook meals, and keep-house.

Having your photograph taken involved sitting very still for a long period of time – and was therefore a little bit of an ordeal. A smile is more difficult to maintain, and tends to look false over a period of time, so a stern fixed expression became the fashion
I cut and pasted this above statement. Also it was not poor kids that got their photos taken.

Just as long as my complete Bradford Exchange "Country Stars of the 1950's" enameled plate collection is still worth $50K+, that's all I'm concerned about...

Delete the K and you are probably OK.

Proof that public schools have been wasting funding for centuries. Snow on the ground and second story window is open.
