Here is a treasured Vintage item that belonged to my Grandmother. After she died, this is one thing my father wanted. My Grandmother died before I was born and I always remember this sitting in the bookcase part of my mothers desk. I always thought she was pretty. There is a note inside written by my Grandmother. "One time when I was maybe 9 or 10 we came to Charleston. I was given 25 cents to spend. This is what I bought." That would of been about 1902. Now there is another note in there, a note from my Mother when she gave the doll head to me.

Welcome to Vintage Thigies Thursday! What a precious family treasure...more so by the note by your grandmother and then your mother. The doll is so sweet alone, but with those notes, just a true treasure! Very pretty!! Have a great VTT!
How wonderful to have the notes. Your grandmother must have felt that the figurine was important enough that it would be passed along.
What a nice thing to have, especially with the notes and price.
I am in love with your doll's head and the story behind it. How very special that you have it now. The notes are priceless.
Hugs, Jeanne
What a wonderful vintage memory and treasure. That is great they both left a note. That makes it even more special. It will be a nice thing to continue to hand down. I loved your doll and the history behind it.
That is a beautiful story. What a treasure to have such a personal piece in your family!
I love that story, such a great treasure. I just love things like that.
She is lovely.
