This is my doll house from when I was a lot younger then I'm now. I think probably I had this in early 1950's. It would not be considered safe for kids these days. It's a heavy tin. lots of sharp edges. How did we all ever survive all those early toys?

It’s is Wonderful! That you still have it and all the pieces is amazing. They sure do not make doll houses like that anymore!

Nancy how wonderful you still have it!! I think my sisters and I had a similar one but have no idea what became of it.

I remember my sister and I had one that was single story, had plastic snap together walls and plastic furniture. It was raised on 4 legs so that you could move the people, who had magnets in the bases, from room to room by magnetic rods. When they fell over, we'd say they were eating ants.

Your dollhouse is beautiful and looks like it is still in perfect condition. I always dreamed of having one when I was a child but some reason my sister & I never got one. It's great that you have loved & cherished it all these years.
