This blog is to celebrate the paper dolls I had as a child growing up in the late 1940s - early 1950s.....and others I would have also loved!

Do you know dapper Mr. Mouse....or is he Mr. Rat?

This is Mr. Mouse....or maybe Mr. Rat.
Looking a bit spiffy here even though 
he has patches on his knickers.
He is a paper doll standing 8 inches tall that
was published in The New York Tribune in 1931.


When he wants to dress for fun, you will find him
in his white slacks, striped blazer and sweater vest
 while sporting a flower in his lapel. 
He considers himself a real "dandy" on the town.

When he wants to impress his lady, how does he dress? 
Fancy overcoat, plaid slacks, spats, 
leather gloves, a cane for good measure 
and a box of candy under his arm!

 Say good-by and good luck to Mr. Mouse!
