Just curious where they all came from. Any thoughts? It kind of makes me sad that they possibly belonged to the same person. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Bostonian-Real-Good-Toys-Dollhouse-Wood-Mansion-Victorian-Garage-70-pc-Furniture/122941514402?hash=item1c9fe2a2a2:g:hY4AAOSwSVJacIL~ Wow!

Thimble Hall Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Hey Hey, my e bay offer was accepted and I got my RGT Queen Anne dollhouse kit , this is the last one on my "looking for" list, well apart from the the Uk one, which is very unlikely to show up as a kit anywhere I think.

rodentraiser Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 If you have to get just one house, get this one: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Victorian-Custom-Dollhouse-Mansion-Large-51-5-x-57-5-x-27-Electric/112783267247?hash=item1a426815af:g:bvUAAOSwYDZabzcF It's the Walmer Victorian Mansion. It opens on the front and can be placed against a wall. Twelve rooms and I think something like four feet tall. Beautiful house and it's a steal.

Elsbeth Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 There are a lot of the partial builds of the same kit in that collection...interesting. I wonder who it was. I assume they are deceased now - 18 partially built houses! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How could you tell? I looked & looked for interior pictures and only saw the one of the outside. Jenn, if you got it you could rip out the carpet and replace it with hardwood floors.

sparklepuppies Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 I have that colonial, but mine is brick. It's made by Jerry Jarrell for The Dollhouse, Inc. This is the Mt. Vernon Colonial with Wings. Price in 1990 (according to the catalog, which Nancy at HBS let me photocopy) including siding, shingles, and Houseworks components was $730. So the asking price is a deal. https://m.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Victorian-Custom-Colonial-Dollhouse-Mansion-Large-58-75-x-37-x-24-25/112783621235?hash=item1a426d7c73:g:Hm0AAOSwZvRab2XW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsbeth Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 For some reason I want this one - to remake into a 1970s harvest gold/burnt sienna wonderland!

rodentraiser Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 That whole house would have to be done over, including the wallpaper and the trim AND the siding. But it would be so worth it. Did anyone catch ET and Yoda through the windows? I wonder if she'd sell those. Those two are worth a lot of money on the secondary market now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

otterine Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Wasn't sure where to put this link, but since it's likely not permanent, I figured here was best. Tiny sweaters for a good price - might work for scale depending on what you need. https://www.dreamweaveryarns.com/catalog/lantern-moon-little-sweater-keychain-p-6891.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
