ELIZABETH TAYLOR - 1950s





















ELIZABETH TAYLOR - 1950s. No other actress (except perhaps Debbie Reynolds) has had more paper doll sets issued than Taylor. Here is a very nice one from the mid 1950s. 2 dolls and 40 outfits!

[ Print the dolls and clothes pages onto 20lb copy paper. Use spray adhesive to attach the dolls to heavy weight white poster board. Cut out the dolls with a craft knife being sure to leave extra poster board around the feet for a base. You can fashion an easel like stand of poster board to allow the dolls to stand up. I use clear sheet protectors with a sheet of card stock in them to hold the dolls and their clothes flat for storage, one doll on each side. ]
