He/She who dies with the most dolls, wins!

I live in El Paso, a bridge away from Mexico, and there is a large military complex here that brings folks in from all over the world so I am never surprised at what I find! :-). My auctions come from flea markets, yard and estate sales, thrift stores, and I also do consignment sales.
