Lg. 30" Tall Antique Black Folk Art Male Rag Doll
Price: 395 including shipping and insurance
Sold by Albion Valley Folk Art and Antiques
For sale is a large antique Black Americana folk art male rag doll that came from New York state. I was told that he dates from the 19th century, and based on his clothing, I think that is probably accurate. I believe he is made of linen and canvas, has very crudely painted facial features, black wool yarn hair, and is wearing his original clothing. It should be noted that his shirt can be removed, but his pants are sewn in place. The doll measures about 30" tall, and is in antique but displayable condition, with fading, particularly on his shirt, which now appears tan, but was originally blue, as well as some areas of wear on his hands, boots, and hair. There are no holes in his body or clothing. Please look carefully at the pictures, and contact me with any questions or for additional photos.
