Design: Neuhart Dolls made for Girard’s House Industries
By Spraygraphic | August 7, 2009
Alexander Girard was so smitten with Marilyn Neuhart’s dolls that he asked her to make 100 for the 1961 opening of his Textile & Objects store. Since they were the catalyst for his creative partnership with the Neuharts, House Industries has asked Marilyn to create four new designs. Made in the USA with Mexican cotton from the same family-owned mill that she used for her originals.

These dolls are great! I love that she has been commissioned to make more, and I especially love that she will be using the same company for the fabric as she did in the 60’s.
