BREWER Me., June 18 (UP)— Mrs. Evelyn Green of Brewer has a collection of nearly 200 dolls fepicting the dress of mankind trom 18,000 B.C. to the present. The dolls include a fur-clad eave man and woman, historically famous figures, persons from the fray Nineties and modern-day bobby soxers. Mrs. Green has been pursuing her hobby for 14 years and her pollection of miniatures in costume rates as one of the most valuable in the nation. | It takes her between one and two weeks to make a small doll, while larger ones in more elaborate dress take from two to three months. She makes all the dolls herself. Many of the dolls are jeweled to exact scale and the heads are hand-painted with flesh tones that Wuplicate the human skin.
