TTV of Mae Starr doll

TTV of Mae Starr doll by jelene.
Shot with my kodak through an argus 75.

About this doll, the oldest doll I have in my collection: The Mae Starr doll is another doll that played music with light blue cylinders. Phonograph dolls talk, sing and play cylinders... Mae Starr is 29 inches tall, four inches larger than the Genuine Madame Hendren. The Mae Starr doll was made from 1928 through 1944, when doll production stopped because of the shortage of materials due to World War II. On the back of the shoulder plate is the identifying name: "Mae Starr Doll". There is a rare advertising cylinder for Mae Starr titled "The Mae Star Dolly", which carries this title on the rim of the cylinder. These cylinders were supplied by the Averill Company.
