<p>[QUOTE="Ladybranch, post: 29356, member: 44"]Snip, as to the gymnastic doll, I have found a couple of male gymnasts with the same mechanism that are credited to the USSR and found a female one called "Lola" with box having a bit different mechanism credited to Japan. They all appear vintage 1930s to 1950s. This certainly doesn't help you on a timeframe. No doubt you have seen them, but if not, here they are.</p><p><br /></p><p>EARLY RARE VINTAGE SOVIET WIND UP MECHANICAL TOY GYMNASTIC DOLL DINAMO RUSSIA</p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/EARLY-RARE-VINTAGE-SOVIET-WIND-UP-MECHANICAL-TOY-GYMNASTIC-DOLL-DINAMO-RUSSIA-/400371172129?pt=Vintage_Antique_Toys_US&hash=item5d37fb4321" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/EARLY-RARE-VINTAGE-SOVIET-WIND-UP-MECHANICAL-TOY-GYMNASTIC-DOLL-DINAMO-RUSSIA-/400371172129?pt=Vintage_Antique_Toys_US&hash=item5d37fb4321" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/EARLY-RARE-VINTAGE-SOVIET-WIND-UP-MECHANICAL-TOY-GYMNASTIC-DOLL-DINAMO-RUSSIA-/400371172129?pt=Vintage_Antique_Toys_US&hash=item5d37fb4321</a></p><p><br /></p><p><font size="4">1950s ANTIQUE USSR CHILD MECHANIC CELLULOID TOY GYMNAST</font></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1950s-ANTIQUE-USSR-CHILD-MECHANIC-CELLULOID-TOY-GYMNAST-/231057951705" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1950s-ANTIQUE-USSR-CHILD-MECHANIC-CELLULOID-TOY-GYMNAST-/231057951705" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/1950s-ANTIQUE-USSR-CHILD-MECHANIC-CELLULOID-TOY-GYMNAST-/231057951705</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Reckturnerin "Lola"</p><p><a href="http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/32175156_reckturnerin-lola" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/32175156_reckturnerin-lola" rel="nofollow">http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/32175156_reckturnerin-lola</a></p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
