Description

Step right into a golden age of childhood with this vintage Shirley Temple Snap-On Paper Dolls set produced by Samuel Gabriel Sons and Company in cooperation with Ideal Toy Corp of Hollis, New York. The bright red box bears a charming black-and-white photo of Shirley herself in a straw hat and plaid blouse, and inside you will find the large extra-heavy real-life Shirley Temple paper doll complete with a colorful assortment of snap-on costumes including dresses, gloves, shoes, hats, and accessories. The innovative plastic snap system was a genuine novelty of its era, allowing little designers to mix and match bows, buttons, and flowers across outfits in ways standard paper dolls never could. The box shows honest wear with torn corners, creasing, and old tape repairs consistent with its age and a well-loved life, while the contents remain colorful and largely intact, making this a genuinely displayable piece of American pop culture history.
