Title: Cold painted bronze, doll ?
Post by: keith on November 13, 2017, 05:53:34 PM

Just 2.5 inches tall, very heavy, not lead and not mine  8:) ( my better half's collection ) have googled and realised how careful you have to be when including the word doll in a search  :o can find all types of things, usually animals but not 'dolls' any clues where else to look please  ;D ;D
