My mother gave me this doll, which she had been given by her great uncle back in the late 40s or early 50s. He had traveled to the UK, and bought this doll there, and apparently told her that he was an English guardsman, which is what I believed for years. After mom gave me the doll, I realized that he's wearing a kilt, and appears to be Scottish rather than English, and seems to be made of felt. That's all I know about this doll, and hoping that someone somewhere has seen a doll like this, and knows what he would have looked like in pristine condition. I'd like to know this so that I can possibly get him restored.

The doll found here looks similar - it's listed as a Chad Valley Scottish Guard doll:

From what I can find so far, these dolls were manufactured 1950-60 by the Chad Valley Company in the UK.Last edited by KuariKaydrith; 09-14-2015, 01:05 PM.
