St. Joseph Museums

The image depicts a vintage doll designed to resemble a historical figure, dressed in an 18th-century-style gray coat with intricate lace details around the sleeves and neck. The doll wears matching trousers and a yellow vest adorned with small buttons. It is positioned against a textured, bubble-like background. The facial features are painted, with rose-red lips and a black tricorn hat perched on top of its white, curly hair. Attached to the doll is a white tag that reads "Geo. Washington Doll," alongside a numerical identifier. The doll's legs are painted a light, flesh tone, and each foot is clad in a black shoe, capturing a nostalgic, historical charm.
