I have been wanting to find a vintage Caco miniature dollhouse girl
doll for some time now, especially since seeing this cute gal on a
friend's blog
here,
It's on her banner photo! I knew a little about the vintage Caco dolls
made in Germany for the 1:12 scale and smaller scale dollhouses. I even
bought a set of family Caco dolls sometime back. See below.
But I didn't know that there were girl dolls with hair! I've seen the
later issues of 70's Moms with hair, but the children with hair! I think
they are much cuter than the one's with molded on hair. Though I still
like molded on hair as well, but to own one of the girls with hair,
would be a joy...
Finally, while doing my usual searches via
ebay, I found this little girl with a buy it now, and she was just in the states! I love her dress and she has lovely brown
braided hair! What I didn't realize is how small she is! She's much
smaller than my first Caco girl doll! So, she might have been made for
the 1:18 scale dollhouses?
Still she is a great addition to my dollhouse dolls collection, and a wee visitor to her cousin Sandy!
Then, I also wanted to update and take pics of the vintage dollhouse
lamps I have so far. The last two on the right are made in the USA and the others are made in
Germany. A girl can't have too many lamps to decorate her house...LOL!- ggsdolls
I´m happy to see,
ReplyDeletethat you found your girl!
I love the Caco Dolls
and there are so many different...
And yes, there are also small ones
for 1:18 scale -
I´m actually looking for these children
for several months...

Irmchen, Thanks dear friend! I love your girl. She is so unique and special. I truly agree with you, that they are all unique and each have a style of their own! Many hugs for your lovely thoughts, gg
ReplyDeleteYour 1/12th doll family in your first picture were made in both Hong Kong and Taiwan. They were sold as 'Doll House Family Set' or 'Modern Family' dolls mostly for the US market. They arent Caco dolls or German. I have some and like them very much :)
ReplyDeleteHi Zozu, thanks for your info. I bought them through ebay Germany. I haven't collected these dolls for some time now. So, thank you again so much for the new info. Many hugs, Gigi
