Welcome to Ginger’s vintage bedroom.  

The Ginger doll (far left) is a hard plastic walker

 made by Cosmopolitan of Jackson Heights, New York

in the early 1950’s, 

and the doll was one that competed with Vogue’s Ginny doll. 

I made the Ginger wallpaper partly based on pictures from a 50’s 

Ginger Little Golden paper doll activity book 

by Kathleen N Daly titled Ginger Paper Doll.  

Above and below you see a copy of Kathleen Daly’s 

Ginger paper doll and pup.

Close-ups of this scene will follow on subsequent pages

 Leaning against the side of Ginger’s vintage dresser, is the second Ginger booklet. 

This blonde Ginger is a 1954 painted lash walker doll made by the

 Cosmopolitan Toy Company.

  She wears a later ’55-56 original vintage jumper and beret outfi

with matching purse and monogrammed sweater.

Ginger’s original dresser is very hard to find. 

The vintage piece is red and speckled gray, 

has four legs, and three drawers. 

The horizontal double drawer is actually one pull-out drawer. 

Note the darling outlines of a Ginger doll

 with braids and one with the famous 

Ginger roll flip do. 

The dresser is by Big’N Liddle of Contemporary Children’s Group.

I decorated the top of the dresser with a harlequin hat, 

gold tone Monopoly pieces,

 a Chutes and Ladders game, piano pin,

 book cover (Surprise Doll) , 

 a red gift, and mini card.  

Above you see Ginger’s ballet tutu and satin bloomers.

   I added the little gold necklace  

and vintage clown upper left.

 The white luggage is Ginger’s vinyl monogrammed zippered suitcase. 

I made the Mickey mouse party hat. 

The Chutes and Ladder game

has a tiny spinner in the drawer.

You can see my wallpaper more clearly in this photo. 

Above are pics of my  wonderful vintage red wooden piano.  

My friend Linda ("Ginny Linda" to those who know her well!) 

bought a red piano like mine above and I hunted for a long time 

until I found one, too. 

It actually plays when the keys are pressed. 

The girl with pigtails resembles a Campbell’s kid! 

For some reason the wooden 3 peg legs to my piano are not painted.
