JOAN WALSH ANGLUND HALLOWEEN PARTY.

If you are a fan of vintage Joan Walsh Anglund drawings as I am then you will enjoy this little party of Halloween costumed characters. Along with the tri-fold background they make a nice holiday decoration for the mantlepiece or table for your own Halloween party.

DOLLY DINGLE'S HALLOWEEN

DOLLY DINGLE'S HALLOWEEN.

It's Halloween Week here at Paperdollapalooza!

 Each day this week I will post something fun to celebrate the holiday so follow along!

 

NANNY AND THE PROFESSOR 1970

NANNY AND THE PROFESSOR 1970.

Rounding out our week of TV inspired paper doll sets is one that wasn't exactly groundbreaking yet still a fun memory, Nanny and the Professor. Inspired by the success of Disney's Mary Poppins with a little bit of Bewitched thrown in this cute sitcom starred Juliet Mills, older sister of Disney star Hayley Mills, as a slightly magical housekeeper and nanny to a widowed college professor and his three young children. 

It's Halloween Week next week and I've got some holiday inspired paper dolls and crafts lined up for posting!

 

JULIA 1968

JULIA 1968.

A groundbreaking TV show in many ways when it premiered in 1968 JULIA starred the amazing Diahann Carroll as a nurse and single mother, the first time an African American woman had been depicted as anything other than a servant on television. Although criticized at the time for being unrealistic and sidestepping the hot button political issues of the civil rights movement, this show is nevertheless still regarded as a step forward in inclusivity in media.

All of that aside this set which features Julia, her cute son Corey, her neighbor Marie and her son Earl J. Waggedorn, has some really nice late 1960's fashions and hats.    

 

THAT GIRL 1966

THAT GIRL 1966.

This week I will be posting paper doll sets that tied-in with popular TV shows from the 1960's and 70's.

THAT GIRL starring Marlo Thomas was a groundbreaking show in many ways disguised as a silly half hour sitcom. Funny to think now that a show about a young woman living on her own in New York City and making her own way in the world could have been so controversial. The norm at that time was for a girl to stay living with her parents until she married. I can remember newspaper articles back then that focused on her character's "virtue" as if being independent made her a loose woman! 

All that aside this is a very nicely drawn three doll set with period appropriate outfits.

 I've added a bi-fold background to pose the dolls in front of.

More 1960's TV coming tomorrow!
