It's a new year and changes are a happenin' here in the Tulgey Wood. We are finally getting back to flood recovery, and have now successfully made our first pass at the contents of all the storage bins. Next phase is to rebuild all the displays - no mean feat, especially with a nationwide lumber shortage! But fear not, I will continue to post things as I find time, and give updates on the progress with the book. Which I'm happy to say is continuing. I'm well into the second chapter "Toys, Games, & Puzzles" and have uncovered a few interesting bits related to them.
So let's start off with something newly acquired this year: This super cool set of kokeshi dolls from Japan, probably 1960s or early 1970s. Not quite within my usual time period, but I have a very soft spot for kokeshi dolls.
