10-1 Historical Folk Doll - Gail Wilson

An Izannah Walker Boy 

There are few cloth dolls with quite as much charm and presence as the dolls made by Izannah Walker in the last half of the 1800’s. The dolls themselves are so rare and costly that only a few museums and very fortunate individuals have them, but they are certainly at the top of any list of early cloth dolls that admirers wish to see. Her dolls had heads that were molded in two parts in cloth and then covered with a cotton stockinette, for which Izannah is the first woman to hold a US patent (obtained in 1873), I felt that this collection would be incomplete without a simple one that could be sewn at home from patterns and easy techniques. This version adopts the very round head which is sewn of stockinette as a seperate shoulderplate with applied ears and a raised stitched nose. The doll's demure countenance is accomplished by special pattern transfers and painting techniques to make it easy for non-painters to achieve the look. This boy is similar to the few boys known to have been made by Izannah and I have given him an outfit from the period and choice of real leather shoes and knit stockings similar to those on the earliest of Izannah Walkers or painted on as in her later dolls.
