Overview
This doll's blanket was given to Josephine Mary Thorn when she was a young girl. Josephine was born in 1926 and was given several very special toys that she kept all her life, including this New Zealand made blanket which was donated to Te Papa in 2015. The set also includes a Chad Valley rag doll, a teddy bear, and a bob-up rabbit.
