A paper baby to color and cut out.

This little paper doll comes from the Betty Bobbs Family.  "Buddy Bobbs" first appeared in an early 1920's Pictorial Review. The original version was in full color. I have redrawn this funny little guy in black and white for little people to color. 

You may be wondering why a baby boy has dresses? Well, not so very long ago, it was culturally acceptable to outfit babies in dresses no matter what their gender was. This paper baby doll was drawn during that time period. But, you can give your paper baby doll a girl's name if you prefer. Paper dolls are for pretend and fun so name this baby what ever you'd like.
