Misfitz Dolls - Boulogne Girl: A Vintage Snapshot of Early 20th Century Play and Fashion This photograph, titled 'Misfitz Dolls - Boulogne Girl,' showcases a delightful scene of two young girls engrossed in a card game, their faces filled with concentration and excitement. The image, taken in the early 20th century, is a charming reminder of simpler times and the joy of childhood. The girls, dressed in their national costumes, are adorned in traditional French attire. The one on the left wears a white blouse with a red and blue striped skirt, while her companion dons a white blouse with a full red skirt and a blue headdress. Their bare feet and the absence of shoes add to the carefree and playful atmosphere of the scene. Intriguingly, the girls are not alone in their game. Scattered around them are various segments and sections of Misfitz Dolls, a popular toy from the era. These dolls, with their silly faces and mismatched body parts, were a staple of early 20th century children's games. The girls' cards suggest that they are playing a matching game with the dolls. The Boulogne Girl image also highlights the girls' connection to nature. One girl holds a fishing net and a bucket, indicating that they may have been playing near a body of water. The natural setting, combined with their colorful costumes and the quirky Misfitz Dolls, creates a delightful tableau of early 20th century childhood and play. This photograph, from the extensive collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, is a fascinating glimpse into the past and a reminder of the simple joys of childhood and the enduring appeal of games and toys.
