The M.C.&K. Family





I find this among the most strange and amusing paper doll sets: a family of seven, with grandparents that look like George and Martha Washington! Perhaps left over from another historical set, and repurposed here? Also, this 1895 set is marked M.C.&K., with an address of 108 Times Building, New York on the back. Is it possible the august NY Times had a paper doll giveaway? The newspaper connection made this one a must-have for my collection.
