SHERLOCK HOLMES. Here is a cute little set featuring the consulting detective and a few of his many disguises. Seems appropriate to this time of year.

MGM STARLETS - 1951
MONICA LEWIS & SALLY FORREST
DEBBIE REYNOLDS
MGM STARLETS - 1951. Monica Lewis was a Big Band singer in the 1940's who made a few films in the 50's. Sally Forrest made a few films before moving into television. Don't know whatever became of that Debbie Reynolds though....
A good set with some nice early 1950's fashions. I don't usually deal with shoes when they appear in paper doll sets as they are just too small and difficult to attach properly. These however are an exceptional range of footwear so I included them here. Can you match the shoes to the outfit?

THE MUNSTERS
THE MUNSTERS. A fun set of characters and costumes from the 1960's TV show just in time for HALLOWEEN!
Hinge the two panels of the House at 1313 Mockingbird lane into a backdrop to pose the dolls in front of.
