    Scottish Doll from 50's

    Thought I'd share photo's of this wee lad that's been in our family since the early 50's. My Dad got it on his first trip to Scotland and it was eventually passed down to me. He's a little beat up....

    You know - that just might be worth some money to some collector.

    Very nice!

    You know, I've seen one like that a few years ago and MacMillan is right. They are worth quite a bit to collectors! (Of course if your like me, sentimental value means more than $$ )

    WOW.That is awesome.
    If I owned that I would have it under glass an lock and key.

    As said its worth a lot,but some things are more valuable than money.
