Two beautiful intact negro dolls entirely of celluloid. The larger doll has original outfit.
In 1873 the forerunner of the Turtle factory "Gummi- und Celluloidfabrik" was founded. In 1896 Robert Zeller made the first dolls in Mannheim-Neckarau. Turtle was chosen as a name because celluloid was much stronger than porcelain.
Both are marked with the old (!) Turtle mark in diamond. The larger doll is size 16, the smaller doll size 13 1/2
Date: Around 1920-1930
Dimensions:
16 cm high x 8 cm wide x 6 cm deep
13 cm high x 5 cm wide x 4 cm deep
The dolls are carefully packaged and shipped.
