Hello Dolly

Going through Scott's baby book, there was a newspaper article about a "Doll Contest" that apparently Scott and Chris had entered, and received ribbons (and a mention in the newspaper) for. Mom didn't have much of a memory in 2020 to explain or add when asked about it, and then this picture surfaced as Chris was scanning a box of old photos and documents.  Mom's note on the back of the photo ...


 It would be interesting to have a little more details about this doll contest and to get a better look at the dolls in the pictures. Chris's small doll is so small, I can't really even see it! Who knew Scott was so handy at making dolls?

Here's the clipping from the paper ...


It was August 1971, the Richland Recreation Department's Doll Show. Categories were Most Unique, Best Dressed, Best Homemade, Best Foreign, Prettiest, Largest Collection, Oldest, Smallest, and Largest. 


I wonder what happened to these award-winning dolls?
