<p>[QUOTE=&quot;David Askett, post: 2529102, member: 4727&quot;]I’m hoping someone who knows about such things can tell me about this 8” tall doll. For starters, what is it made of? It looks like sawdust mixed with some sort of glue. Would this be what’s known as “composition”? Or, is she paper mache?</p><p><br /></p><p>Unfortunately the doll is in rough condition, and seems to have lost her clothes along the way, but she’s special to me as she was brought home by a Canadian soldier who fought in the Boer War, for his daughter. On the doll’s back is painted “South Africa 1900” in red. This doll may not be pretty, but I hope I look as good when I’m 120!</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/boGHYdo.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/Ef8QDXC.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/Msm96KQ.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
