These are the bits and pieces of a small composition doll.
This particular doll was made by the Canadian company 'Reliable'. They sold black dolls like this as 'Topsy' dolls.
She has had a previous repair in that the top of her head has an applied plaster texture in areas. She is going to keep that repair history inact and keep her aged paint. She will just get a few missing paint areas filled, painted and then she will get her torso fixed and get restrung.
The staple in the picture is where a tuft of wool once was. She would have had three tufts of wool stapled on to her head to make up her hair style.
Here is her head patched up.
Topsy is done
She came with a box full of outfits.
This is one outfit.
