The atlas was never openly sold; it was distributed only to Federal Depositories, Universities, Libraries, Museums, and other Public Institutions.

Effanbee 11″ Mickey F&B Doll LOT 3 Molded Baseball Cap Heads Redressed 1960s

by

Part of an extensive collection of vintage F&B dolls, fresh from a local estate where they were carefully stored and displayed.

Here is a set of three vintage 1960s F&B Effanbee Mickey dolls, each with the desirable molded baseball cap head variation. We think they look wonderful when posed and displayed together!

Initially, these dolls were sold in baseball uniforms, but all three have since been redressed.

One wears a gray tee with red pants, another a turquoise shirt with sneakers, and the third a red floral pajama-style outfit.

While the clothing is replaced, each doll retains Mickey’s original charm with his freckled cheeks, playful grin, and glancing eyes (right or left, depending on doll).

Vinyl bodies remain in good condition, with typical light age-related wear. A wonderful group for Effanbee collectors — these molded cap Mickeys are hard to find in multiples like this. In addition to this beautiful collector’s doll, we have over 300 other Dolls (new, vintage) in our eBay Store Connectibles.

by

From a rare and beautifully preserved group of one-of-a-kind artist dolls, completed by Judy Keefe of Cabin Fever Artisans (Preston, Connecticut), each figure was individually poured, painted, and hand-dressed in the mid-1990s. These small-studio works are admired for their emotional realism, soft color palettes, and custom tailoring—hallmarks of the Cabin Fever style.

This charming 14-inch porcelain doll was sculpted by Rose Pinkul (“Sparrow” © 1993) and fully realized by artist Judy Keefe. She has real auburn-red hair, styled to frame her face and coordinate with her custom autumnal vibe! She wears an original hand-knit cream sweater and charming hat, coordinating brown corduroy trousers, and felt slippers—all handmade and perfectly fitted. Her original Cabin Fever Artisans wooden stand is included and labeled on the underside to confirm authenticity.

Condition: Excellent with no cracks or chips; clothing bright and intact.

Please note: the final collage photo shows all seven dolls from this Cabin Fever Artisans collection for reference. This listing is for the single doll described in the title—“Sparrow,” the red-headed girl in the hand-knit sweater & hat. Other dolls from the same series are being offered separately. In addition to this beautiful collector’s doll, we have over 300 other Dolls (new, vintage) in our eBay Store Connectibles.

Ampico Piano Roll 216533 OVER THE RAINBOW Wizard of Oz Frank Milne Medley 1939

by

This is the original AMPICO Piano Roll No. 216533, featuring Over the Rainbow from The Wizard of Oz, arranged and played by Frank Milne. This late-1930s medley is one of the more desirable Ampico popular-music rolls, combining the iconic Over the Rainbow with three additional hits of the era. This is one of forty (40) Rolls we recently acquired from an extensive collection. We will list some as a single roll, and others will be sold in lots of several rolls.

The roll is complete, tightly wound, and the entire perforated music section is intact. The only cosmetic flaw is a small, old stain (possibly glue or varnish residue) in the decorative printed header area, well before the musical perforations. The leader tab is present and attached, and the roll advances normally.

The box label shows some age-related wear, but the roll itself remains a strong and highly collectible example for both display and play. Buyers seeking classical film-era Ampico music will appreciate this title.

You will receive the exact roll shown in the photos.

Although I do not have an Ampico piano to test it, the roll appears complete and structurally sound, with no visible edge issues or paper damage. It reflects the charm and musical elegance of Ampico’s golden era, especially in sought-after dance, film, and featured-artist titles like this one.

An excellent choice for collectors, players, or anyone looking to add a top-grade Ampico roll to their library. See them all; happy to combine shipping for extra savings. Please visit our eBay Connectibles Store to see the entire collection.

Britains Herald Native American Village 40pc Set 4729 Elastolin Maiden 1960s 54mm

by

Step back into the golden age of toy soldiers with this exceptional Britains Ltd. Herald “American Native American Village” set — an unusually complete 40-piece grouping from the 1966–1971 Hong Kong production period. These figures mark the final years of Britain’s classic Herald line, molded from the original English tools and hand-painted in vivid enamel tones that defined the company’s mid-century artistry.
Please see the video for a full view of all forty pieces, including mounted chiefs, warriors, and the complete village scene.

This impressive display brings together authentic Britains figures and accessories from sets 4710–4729, including:

  • Five mounted Indian chiefs in full feathered headdress on horseback (bases marked “Made in Hong Kong for Britains Ltd.”)

  • Multiple foot warriors with tomahawks, bows, and shields in classic Herald poses

  • Three original Britains printed-card teepees and a large longhouse featuring the serpent-and-sun motif, all excellent with minimum wear. Bonus extra teepee that shows some wear and repair.

  • Britain’s scenic trees and shrubs for camp detailing, some shedding.

  • And one beautifully sculpted Elastolin Germany maiden beside a cooking tripod and kettle — a finely modeled companion from Hausser-Elastolin’s 1950s Western series that complements the Britains scale perfectly.

Each figure retains bright, original paint with excellent detail. The teepees and lodge are sturdy and clean, showing only minor edge wear consistent with age. Everything displays beautifully as a cohesive and authentic Britains Indian Village diorama.

A superb example of the transitional Britains Herald period (1966–71), enhanced by the inclusion of a genuine Elastolin accessory figure. This rare, display-ready ensemble represents the essence of Britain’s mid-century Western line — ideal for collectors of Britains, Elastolin, Timpo, or Starlux figures, and a striking centerpiece for any vintage toy soldier collection. Visit our Connectibles eBay Store for this and other toy figures.
