EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Lady's pocket for a pedlar doll named Sarah Thrifty, dating back to the years 1820-40. Created by an unknown European School artist in the 19th century, this cotton-made pocket is currently housed at the prestigious Manchester Art Gallery in the UK. The pedlar doll, Sarah Thrifty, is crafted from jointed wood with delicately painted features. She is adorned in multiple layers of clothing including three petticoats, a pink and white striped kerchief, a printed bedgown, a blue and white check apron, a cap, a brown stiffened bonnet, and even dons knitted stockings and laced boots. To complete her ensemble, she carries a compartmented tray with ribbon handles that displays her wares. A numbered card lists all her merchandise. Believed to have originated from Germany due to its unique design elements and intricate craftsmanship; this charming doll embodies the spirit of itinerant merchants during that era. The Lady's pocket serves as both storage for small items as well as an accessory for young girls' playtime adventures. With its attention to detail and historical significance within childhood pastimes during the Regency-Victorian era; this miniature fashion statement offers us glimpses into bygone days where thriftiness was celebrated alongside imagination and creativity. This print truly captures the essence of Sarah Thrifty's world while reminding us of our own cherished memories playing with toys that sparked joy and inspired dreams.
