    I am wondering if my grandmother made these herself or purchased them. I remember "clothes" with tabs that attached in the back to dress the dolls. These would be from the 1920's or 30's I think.

      These are factory made not home made and yes they would have come with a sheet of paper with their clothes to cut out and the tabs held them on paper doll. I am not sure what the Holland dolls are , they are to small to see for me . What a nice heirloom to have from your Grandmother . I am thinking they are 1930's-to 1950 .
      Welcome to CW glad to have you with us .

      Thank you, Manikin. My mother was born in 1929, so I suspect her mother got them for her in the 1930's.

      That would be about right usually girls got these when they were at least 8-10 years because of the cutting . What a nice heirloom :-)
