St. Joseph Museums

The image shows a vintage doll with dark brown hair styled in curls, wearing a pink satin top and a tutu-like skirt made from mesh material, giving the appearance of attending a dance school. The doll has closed eyes painted with eyelashes and red lips. Attached to her left hand is a white tag with handwritten text, apparently stating "Big Sister goes to Dancing School, Big Sister Exhibit Box." The doll stands on a textured surface that looks like bubble wrap, giving the impression of care and protection during transportation or display. She wears small black shoes, completing her outfit, and a piece of string is tied around her right ankle.
