MISS MUFFETT Paper Doll
January 08, 1934. MISS MUFFETT COMES TO VISIT. "All of you have heard of little Miss Muffett, haven't you? Don't you remember, she sat on a tuffett eating her curds and whey, when along came a great big black spider and frightened her away. Well, here she is in person. She, too, has come to join the Doll Family, and brought her spider with her. There he is, busy building his web." MISS MUFFETT paper doll by the very talented paper doll artist, Laura Brock.
