These were my grandmother's window display dolls. I'd like to know any background on these dolls if anyone knows information about them. There are no markings on the dolls so I don't know the manufacturing company or age of the dolls.

Would you be willing to sell these dolls?
I'm very lost on these. You should try the eBay doll board I think
No. Sorry. I would not sell. These dolls are very special as my grandmother displayed them for years in her store. I've tried eBay and there just isn't anything like them. They actually move when you plug them in. I don't even know how old they are. There is a photo of me in 1970 with them. I know they are at least that old.
No what I mean is go the the ebay doll board under community. They have a forum there with just doll collectors
Would you be willing to email me? I have several of these dolls and can give you some information. I would love to see the picture you have so I could see how they were displayed. I remember this from my childhood in the 70's but no one can find any pictures of them in the midst of their display. My email is frogkid11@yahoo.com if you wouldn't mind contacting me. Thank you.
