The Birds' Christmas
Carol
1996
Christmas Collection
Edition of 500
Retail Price $450
|
|
The Birds' Christmas Carol,
published in 1886, was the very first book written by Kate Douglas Wiggin,
author of many classics, such as Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm and Mother Carey's
Chickens. In Carol Bird, critics believe that Miss Wiggin created her most
enduring character. For the 1996 Christmas Edition, Lawtons issued the Bird's
Christmas Carol. Inspired by Jessie Gillespie's cover illustration, Carol
is dressed in a delicately smocked cotton frock trimmed with red ribbons
over a red underskirt. Her long blonde ringlets and soft blue eyes set off
her delicate complexion. Carol holds three of the books from "Carol's
Circulating Library", books from her own collection that she made available
to little ones at the Children's Hospital. Carol is all-porcelain and is
14" tall.

Looking like she just stepped
out of a German lithograph scrap, Victorian Christmas is a recreation of
the traditional Christmas snow angel. Dressed in pristine white velveteen
and faux fur, this 12" doll is complete from her kid leather spats,
her fur muff and her bonnet to the blue drop-waist dress underneath. She
has blue eyes and blonde hair. Victorian Christmas has a porcelain head
and hands on a fully articulated spring-jointed wooden body.

| One hundred and one years

Is A Santa Claus." Our Christmas doll for 1998 celebrates this century
old publishing classic. Virginia is dressed in striped dupion silk trimmed
with silk organza. She has blonde hair and hazel eyes. The editorial is
included in her newspaper. Virginia is an all porcelain, 14" doll. |

It's going to be a Currier

in a cranberry velveteen dress, cape and hat, trimmed in snow white fur.
One can hear the sleigh bells ringing, for Noel's bright anticipation of
a Christmas outing. NOEL is actually sculpted after a bright, darling little
girl named Laura Noel Brown. She is the granddaughter of Harley and Yvonne
Thacker, who was a partner of Lawtons.

|
Christmas Angel is dressed
in the traditional white robe with feathery wings and gilt trim. Christmas
Angel comes with a handmade rococo harp. Her eyes are closed with delicate
little lashes resting on her cheeks. Wendy says she chose to sculpt Christmas
Angel with closed eyes because angels are so often portrayed in drawings
with their eyes closed. Even little children draw angel eyes as little smiles
with lashes.
