Mlle. Lyska Kostio and her collection of dolls

One of the latest crazes in Paris in the early 1910s was doll-collecting. Apparently Mlle. Kostio took all her dolls with her when she travelled, and looked after them all herself, dresing them and giving them a bath every morning. She then took those who had been good out for a walk. Date: 1914
