Doll collectors show their dolls all dressed up and ready for a variety of spring holidays.

Linda Shypulefski said, “All my dolls in this picture are from my Madame Alexander collection of Wendykins. Some are bent knee, some straight leg. As Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day, and Easter are close this year, each shelf celebrates a different holiday. Outfits are either Alexander or Vogue Ginny. The non-MA in the back is a stuffed doll from my childhood.”
