Physical description

doll, 2 arms, hat, 1 photograph, 1 mounted newspaper cutting, 1 copy of newspaper doll (L 5in x W 8in x H 20in) made from fabric, metal and plaster.

Label

First World War period 'doll', British Home Front associations. The doll, patented by Eugene Sandor in 1915, was modelled on a First World War soldier. It was designed to encourage children to engage in healthy play activity as, associated with it, were details of 21 games which would stimulate health-giving exercise. A newspaper cutting associated with the item and complete copy of the 'Daily Mirror' in which it appeared, (dated 8 September 1915), displays five of these games and illustrates the springs that form the arms of the doll. An associated photograph shows a group of young girls exercising similar dolls kitted out as small boys and nurses.
