The Bride Doll



Published in 1946 by Samuel Lowe Company, this book has some of the most wonderfully romantic clothes I have ever seen in paper doll fashion. In 1949 at the age of 5, I was fascinated by the billowing wedding gown and veil...and thought all brides would look this beautiful!



the bride and her "flower girls"......



rehearsal gown....and play clothes



honeymoon ensembles.....

[The Bride Doll was published with 4 pages and 6 pages;
this page was part of the 6 page book.]




finally....the wedding gown....and a negligee...



....the veil took up the whole page...



...clothes for little girls....

[This was the other page that made up the 6 page book.]




....and pretty dresses for flower girls..

I was always fascinated by the one-shoulder dresses for these little girls.




The beautiful bride......




....and her entourage!
