A collection of handmade paper dolls, a photograph, and two leaves of paper dating from approximately the 1860s to the 1920s, presumably created by a Miss Edith Thompson of England. A verso of one of the two leaves is dated 1923, but the date of the original writing on recto is unknown. The dolls were created in approximately the 1860s, and were modeled after friends, family, and children's literary characters from the 1840s to 1860s.
