ollectors refer to these as dolls from “the Golden Years”. For Judith Spencer Merrill the dolls are more personal. She still calls her dolls “The Girls” as she relates

even now how Alexander dolls “brought tears of joy to my eyes from our first meeting at Macy’s window in 1954 when I was a young girl”. It was from that time forward that Judith sought to find and preserve these dolls which, once considered modern, have passed into the realm of vintage, and now are seven decades into life. Her collection is remarkable, focusing significantly on the child doll, Wendy-Kins, but also encompassing the beloved Cissy doll, Elise, Lissy and even rare historical portrait dolls from the series known as “mystery”. More than 300 dolls are included in the auction. x
