Description
Mosser Jenny Josh Dolls Pair Marigold Carnival Glass Vi HunterJenny is about 4-1/4" tall, Josh is about 4-1/2" tall.
The Mosser mark does not appear on these dolls. Instead, they are marked with an H for Hunter.
These came from the estate auction of an antiques dealer/collector, and they have some stickers on them that I assume were put there by the dealer for identification and inventory purposes.
Be careful when cleaning and caring for any carnival glass object - the carnival effect is achieved with an applied coating, and it is possible to wear it off with too much handling!
These appealing little glass dolls were designed by a nurse named Vi Hunter, who wanted to use them to raise money for a non-profit that assisted abused women. The line of dolls was produced for her by Mosser Glass from 1979 until the early 1980's.
Jenny was produced first, then Josh was added by popular demand. Both dolls' faces are featureless because they are intended to represent all people of all appearances. Some people call Josh a Dutch boy, and I have seen some refer to him as a farmer boy.
There were miniatures made of the Jenny doll, but not of the Josh doll.
Pre-owned, vintage, excellent condition. No chips, no cracks, no repairs. See photos.
