One of the most detailed contemporary Paper Doll Series available was
the bi-monthly American Girl Magazine Paper Dolls. Each Issue featured
a real live girl who has researched her family tree and sent in photos
of herself and various female ancestors. The clothes are in vibrant
colors and excellent historical and ethnic costumes. The sense of
accomplishment for any of these girls is evident, and the artists that
take the photos and recreate these real life American Girls as paper
dolls are to be commended for their beautiful work.
