Doll, rag doll
Small rag doll made for Alba Nisbet by her parents during World War II. The doll is of stuffed cotton with stitched facial features and yellow wool representing short curly hair. She is dressed in a simple yellow flannelette nightgown with drawstring neck. During World War II the commercial production of toys largely ceased as toy factories switched to the production of goods and muntions that contributed to the war effort.
