lambskin.

Lavender Blue
1990 Lawton Collectors Guild Doll
Edition of 781
Retail Price $395
|
Lavender's blue, dilly, dilly!
Lavender's green.
When I am king, dilly, dilly!
You shall be queen.
Call up your men, dilly, dilly!
Set them to work;
Some to the plough, dilly, dilly!
Some to the cart.
Some to make hay, dilly, dilly!
Some to cut corn;
While you and I, dilly, dilly!
Keep ourselves warm.
Lavender Blue is all-porcelain and approximately
13" tall. She wears an amethyst colored frock of moiré tissue
taffeta. Her picture hat clustered with lilacs and violets is the perfect
frame for her soft grey eyes and shiny blonde ringlets. The faint fragrance
of English lavender wafts from her delicately beribboned cornucopia filled
with potpourri and topped with a velvety bunch of violets. Every doll is
signed and dated.

Little Boy Blue
1992 Lawton Collectors Guild Doll
Edition of 510
Retail Price $395
|
The charming nursery rhyme,
Little Boy Blue, has been chosen as the last doll in this collection of
nursery rhymes.
Little boy blue, come blow your horn.
The sheep's in the meadow, the cow's in the
corn.
But, where is the boy who looks after the
sheep?
He's under the haystack, fast asleep.
Little Boy Blue just awakened
from his stolen nap and is so ashamed of the havoc his negligence has caused,
the tears are welling up in his big blue eyes. Little Boy Blue wears a delicately
embroidered blue-gray jumper styled after the Kate Greenaway illustrations.
His brown bob is topped by a gray felt hat. His outfit is completed by gray
leather shoes. He carries his horn over one shoulder. (And, of course, it
is not a brass horn, but a horn made from a cow's horn. Our version has
been sculpted out of porcelain and is carefully painted to look exactly
like the real thing.)
If you already own one of
the other Guild dolls, you'll find that Little Boy Blue is the perfect companion
piece. Little Boy Blue stands 14" tall. Each doll in this edition is
signed and dated by Wendy Lawton. The certificate is issued in the Guild
member's name.
