July 14: “Love, Shirley Temple”
July 15: “Among Friends”
A long-lost collection revealed — hidden in plain sight! For 80 years, the one-of-a-kind objects belonging to the childhood of beloved Shirley Temple have been carefully preserved in special vaults of her own home. “I’m saving history” must have been the thought of Shirley’s mother, Gertrude, and then, later, Shirley herself.
The rarest German bisque art characters, gorgeous French bébés and their costumes, French poupées and trousseaux, American cloth and paper mache folk dolls of the highest order, many bearing blue ribbon presentation awards, were among the treasures sought and perfectly preserved by the prescient North Carolina couple. Coupling good taste with a passion for the curious and unique, the Welkers assembled a perfectly blended selection of antique childhood treasures.
