Chiquet paper doll, Child Life Magazine, March 1930

 


The dresses are "Designed by Chiquet," but I see what looks like the name "Briggs" running vertically in small print on the right side of the page.


This cover perfectly captures the extremes of March weather: wind and snow, and the first signs of spring in emerging crocuses. (The elf's mailbag contains a letter: "Memo--First Call for Crocoses.")

  1. Can you imagine any child now wanting to read a magazine called Child Life? But the orange dress is pretty.

    1. So true! Little kids want to be big kids so quickly these days.
