Vintage Doll Postcard by Kruger West Germany!

I have been smitten by these types of postcards. I first found one via etsy with a boy and girl doll. I am still awaiting that postcard to come in. But then, I also won this one via ebay UK and the seller sent it so quickly. There are several in this series of postcards, mostly with a romantic theme to them. Others are in playful themes too! Made by Kruger West Germany probably in the 60's according to most sellers. The dolls in them are not German-made dolls, but Italian! As soon as I saw the first postcard of a boy and girl. I remembered seeing these types of dolls before... but where?

Above is first of the postcards I had purchased, arrived in the mail today. This lovely card features a cute girl skating. The dolls used in these postcards have lovely flirty eyes with eyelashes, chubby hands and feet. But the legs are unusually long and thick! After seeing the cards, I immediately went into search mode and found a doll similar to them or quite possibly a doll just like the one's in the postcard! We shall see? - ggsdolls
