About this Item
A collection of twelve (12) Spanish and Latin American paper dolls sets, ranging in date from the 1960s to 1983, all in the Spanish language. Includes a couple of Disney items, which provide fascinating insight into how the company promoted their characters to a Spanish speaking audience at this time. Also of interest throughout is the presence of gender roles (e.g. girls wear skirts and have makeup, boys are sporty and rambunctious). There is probably something also to be said about the lack of skin tone diversity in these paper doll sets (most of the dolls have very light skin, despite how diverse the audience would have been). The items include: "Mickey y Minnie de Walt Disney". Hecho en México por Fotorama de Mexico S.A., [1960s]. 10" paper dolls of Mickey and Minnie, uncut in 11" by 12.5" card, with several 14" by 12.5" card with outfits, all housed in original plastic and card packaging measuring approx. 17" by 14".

Most of the sets were printed in Spain and distributed in Mexico to a Latin American audience. Interestingly, however, one of the items ("Fermin y sus pinturas") has a sticker noting an Ohio-based distributor, probably for Spanish language consumers in the United States at the time. Very good. Flaws include light dust soiling, short tears, light wear, toning. Plastic scissors detached from Mickey and Minnie set and broken. Modern tape repairs to some of the packaging.
