So where did the name Cut Out Doll come from? No mystery really; I love dolls and always have done ever since I can remember. I can even remember all their names.
But my favourite of all time was ‘Sindy the doll you love to dress’. I begged for years and years to get her (well in child years it was probably one year), and eventually after being fobbed off with ‘fakes’ I was presented with the real thing. After that I got clothes for her, a sister for her and a boyfriend for her. I also collected cardboard cut out dolls, and waited with great excitement every week for my Bunty to arrive at the local newsagent.
Then one day I didn’t want to play with them anymore. I don’t play with them now (in case you’re wondering), but I do have a fascination for them. Must be the child in me. Here are come pics to take you back and make you smile – if you’re as old a child as me!
