  • [New York, New York?]: The Ladies' World, 1917
[New York, New York?]: The Ladies' World, 1917. Very good. Light toning/dust soiling, the occasional nick. Some tape repairs.. A partial set of six (6) uncut paper doll sheets, each published as part of a series of "Movie Dolls" in the serial "The Ladies' World". This set includes doll nos. 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, and 10, which feature the following actresses (and one actor): Marguerite Clark; Anita Stewart; Marie Doro; George Le Guere; Charlotte Walker; and Pauline Frederick. Only one of the sheets is colored (No. 3); each uncut sheet measures approx. 16.25" by 10.75", and depicts the star or starlet in character costume. A good example of the kind of ephemera in the first half of the 20th century that contributed to a boom in interest in movie stars, celebrities, and modern "fan culture" as we know it today.
