    My sister and I each had a Ruthie face mold vinyl doll when we were little. Hers had dark hair and mine had blond. Mine was in pretty bad shape, but I passed it on to my daughters, who both played with it before I finally threw it out. (Now I wish I hadn't!) I also had a Horseman drink and wet baby doll, but the water would always come back out the mouth instead of the bottom, so we called it the drink and barf doll.

    They're beautiful. I love a good composition doll.
