How adorable is Polly's living room! Ready for Halloween!

Rare Pennsylvania Dutch RENWAL Pieces.

In the 1950's RENWAL produced dollhouse pieces 

specifically for Cross & Blackwell's product promotions.

The Pennsylvania Dutch Styled design was used.

With a label from their soup or canned date and 

nut roll you could

purchase an item for 35 cents! WOW.

The February 1955 edition of Better Homes & Gardens

had the full advertisement from

Crosse & Blackwell.

See C. Donovan's book for that 

ad and more information!

I have 4 different Pennsylvania Dutch items 

for sale on eBay at the moment. 8/19/11
