Comment



Advertisments from stores that carried the dolls.
Madame Hendrin Dolls were made by the "Averill Manufacturing Company" NYC from 1915 to 1965 -- also used company names "Paul Averill, Inc.", "Madame Georgene", and "Georgene Novelties."
Holes were drilled in tokens to tag them to the dolls.
