A Doll Best Defined . . . .
A doll is an object that represents a baby or other human being. Dolls have been around since the dawn of human civilization, and have been fashioned from a vast array of materials, ranging from stone, clay, wood, bone, cloth and paper, to porcelain, china, rubber and plastic.

While dolls have traditionally been toys for children, they are also collected by adults, for their nostalgic value, beauty, historical importance or financial value. [http://www.haaret...
Often the best dolls ever are childhood memories we lost over the years when we give up our dolls to go onto big people things. Sometimes we get lucky enough to realize what we've lost, and rekindle our childhood memories with a renewed enthusiasm for vintage collectibles. Below are eBay's random vintage pics of the day . . .

The Best Dolls Ever . . . .
The best dolls ever usually begin with a heartfelt idea that sparks an artist's imagination.
Some of the best dolls are prototypes destined for reproduction, or simply an artist's masterpiece destined to be cherished by a collector.
Hand made one of a kind dolls are often heirlooms passed from one generation to another. Below are examples of some of the best dolls ever.
The doll shown here is known as a 'half doll' or what my Grandmother would call a "Pin Cushion Doll." The upper half is what I would consider old chalk ware, and it is attached to its original base. The base is filled with sand, and this half doll was used as a pin cushion.
This doll was used to create a mini art poster titled "I'm Stuck On you."
