The Girl Was Smiling But Her Doll Was Not

A Vintage Photos Theme Park photo for the theme of toys or gifts.

A Christmas photo of a girl, who is smiling and seems happy, and her doll, who is rigid and tense -- and seems a little scary!

Before you cautiously back up and quietly exit the house, take note of the metallic Christmas tree, the granny square afghan on the chair, and the girl's striped shirt and Santa pin.

For another potentially scary situation, see The Doll Waited Patiently for Them to Come Home.

hahaha, Alan. That doll does not look at all scary to me - although perhaps her hands are a little odd!
And the poor baby in the snow!
We're bringing different views to this, I see. : )
Definitely the 1970s though, that's for sure! The print color, the rounded corners of the photo, the striped polo neck shirt, the haircut and the ubiquitous granny square quilt. (I have two, both made by my mother in the 70s.) The tree is a throwback to the 60s. I think I've mentioned before that my aunt had one like this with a revolving color wheel that you aimed at it - magical!
I wonder where this was taken? You can see a mountain and a lake in the distance - but it certainly looks fairly green for the east coast.
Merry Christmas, Alan, stay safe in this crazy crazy weather!

Cute. This reminds me of northeastern New Jersey.

Thanks, Deborah and Rick! I'm not sure where the photo was taken. I believe I bought it locally here in Pennsylvania but it could be New Jersey or another area.
