My mother is giving me her collection of Madame Alexander and Effanbee dolls

She said I’m the only one in the family who will appreciate them. She is right about that. My siblings would EBay them.

I will now have a cabinet full of dolls in my house. My transition to Elder Gay Life is complete!

Well, at least you'll have some company now, OP.

Félicitations, OP!

I will r1! They are pretty fabulous -they’re from the 50s-80s.

I have a boyfriend, bitch at r2. Which is good because there’s no way I’d get laid with these things hanging out.

Thank you r3.

Sick bitches, you and your mom.

Although I am happy for you, OP, I find those kind of dolls hideous and creepy.

I'd sell all of them and take a fabulous trip.

LOL, my sister had Madame Alexander dolls growing up. I always loved Miss Spain in her flamenco dress.

If I had them, I put them in my curio with my dildo collection.

OP, please join Facebook "Vintage Dolls" if you want to learn more about your dolls. Also, you might want to join The United Federation of Doll Clubs.

Good for you OP! I’m sure the dolls look lovely next to your Holly Hobbie & Precious Moments figurines.

Now sit back, chug an Ensure & enjoy.

OP...in my youth, I managed an F.A.O. Schwarz store.

We kept a call list of middle-aged ladies who would sell their first-born child for (the latest) limited edition Madame Alexander doll.

Trust me on this...those old broads are dying off at an alarming rate.

Cash in now and relieve yourself of the burden.

P.S. You probably know this, but having the original box increases value big time.

I find those dolls so utterly creepy.

It's like having a cabinet full of Talking Tinas.
