[QUOTE="mirana, post: 9976841, member: 79705"]Going through the mountain of finds I've slowly picked up over the last few weeks (or more :nailbiting:)... German edition. Picked up this little German half-doll pin cushion. I can't decide if I want to keep her or not. I found another with the same cushion, so not a home-make, and found one without a bottom so you can see the "GERMANY" impression. IDK what year she is though...dolls aren't my area.
