Dennis the Menace and Dolls

Today, dolls and voodoo dolls in particular, appeared on "Dennis the Menace."  In this show, Mr. Wilson, played by Gale Gordon of Lucy fame [thinks Mr. Mooney and Harry Carter], was demonstrating a voodoo doll and showing masks he bought in Haiti.  He planned a party with little voodoo dolls gracing the invitations, too. The store where he bought the dolls had large dolls with curly hair in their boxes on display, and Margaret wheeled her vinyl baby doll and Raggedy Ann in her doll carriage.

Of course, dolls have been made of the characters, and I have Dennis himself in my collection.

Happy Doll Collecting!
