He was born in Paramaribo (now Suriname) in 1852. and settled in the United States in 1873 and trained as this apprentice. In 1883, he patented a machine that increased the availability of these items and made it more affordable for everyone. . He died of tuberculosis on August 24, 1889."*
What machine did he make? The Integrity dolls have some of these beautiful items.

Hmmm, so I see 1 camera and a megaphone, but then that wouldn't be it because you said "some of these beautiful items." So it must be a machine to make something that they are wearing. I don't think it was the sewing machine, so maybe something to do with shoes, since they are all wearing shoes. Any way, you have a great collection of IT dolls there. I see you got Tobias too. Isn't he great?!
ReplyDeleteThank You. I agree that Tobias is great but I had a hard time taking his hands off to get his clothes on. The clothes are nice.
