Item description:

1968 reprint of “The Adventures of Two Dutch Dolls” by Florence K. Upton, originally published in 1895 and accompanied by words from Bertha Upton. The book is notable for its historical significance as part of the early 20th-century children’s literature and is distributed in the United States by Federal Small Wares Corp, New York, as indicated on the back cover and bibliographical page. Included with the book is a small felt figure, closely matching the character Golliwogg from the story as illustrated and described in the book. The pairing of the reprint edition with the associated doll adds collector appeal, particularly for those interested in literary memorabilia. The book and plush are both shown with clear signs of age but appear in intact condition. Please note that the Golliwogg character and similar memorabilia have a history of controversy due to outdated cultural depictions.
