AUSTIN DOLL COLLECTORS SOCIETY

The Austin Doll Collectors Society is an organization of antique, vintage, and modern doll collectors, dealers, and artisans. We meet on the second Sunday of each month and our meetings are fun and educational. We begin with refreshments and socializing, and, following our brief business meeting, there is a special doll-related program and "show and tell." The Austin Doll Collectors Society is a nonprofit organization and is a member of the United Federation of Doll Clubs.

Happy Boxing Day!

The day after Christmas is celebrated in the United Kingdom as Boxing Day, traditionally when servants and service providers received a Christmas box or other gift or gratuity. This gracious lady seated upon a silk-covered box would be a welcome gift for any collector. Her bisque shoulder head, arms, and lower limbs are from the German maker Galluba and Hofmann and she is 10.25 inches tall.    This belle on a box is from the collection of member Sharon Weintraub and is featured on her blog.
