Here's Mark Woodcock on these fabulous animal paper dolls:
Here are a few uncut advertising paper dolls. They're 4.5"x7". Four of them are stamped on the back "U.S. Standard Baking Powder" and one "Flag Coffee." They're not numbered so I don't know how many were in the series. I'd be curious to hear if anyone has others. For people who collect animal paper dolls, these are amazing.
Indeed, they are amazing. I'm guessing they're c.1890s, the heyday for this kind of advertising premium.
