A Color Paper Doll Named Dell

This little paper doll named Dell made her debut in 1921 with a set of Winter clothes

"Dell is a very lucky little paper doll. Do you remember all the nice new clothes 
she had in the Winter? Well, above are some more new ones that her
 mother has just mad for her from the latest Butterick designs."
