#tbt Vintage Renwal Dollhouse bits and bobs

So earlier today I was wandering Facebook (as one tends to do) when Franklin Habit posted a photo that looked awfully familiar. Why yes, it was of the same mother and son Dollhouse Dolls that I inherited from #deadnancy. There is not a lot of information out there about the Renwal Company but I was able to find that they were a higher-end maker.

 

In the late 1940s and early 1950s, Ideal, Marx, and Renwal were the high-end manufacturers of dollhouse furniture. Plasco produced a more “generic” line of furniture designed to sell at a lower price point, 15 to 25 percent cheaper.

3 toilets
Yup, that is three toilets. I am sure the toilet seat for the white one was in the box but couldn’t find it.
Also there is a pink high chair/ toilet combo not pictured

Mary was a Ginger?

I know I shouldn’t snark but sometimes I just find #jesusjunque and wonder WTF.

There is just so much going on with this prayer card. For one thing- Mary (and Jesus) were both North African/ Middle Eastern Jews. There is no way that Mary would be so pale and be a ginger. And Jesus? This is where I remind people that Jesus was not a blond haired blue eyed kid. (Again that whole North African/ Middle Eastern thing).

Where is JC’s diaper? Every parent quickly learns that when it comes to little boys to keep the penis covered. You will find yourself with pee shot in the eye or mouth.

But back to Mary- she just gave birth with no painkillers in a stable that reeks of animal shit and her makeup, hair and hijab are on point. I could barely manage to get dressed a few days after having my uterus ripped open. She does lose points because the outfit looks totally impractical for breastfeeding.
