I enjoy searching through newspaper archives and finding fun items such as this "Count the Dots" contest. This newspaper offered a Webster Player Piano as the prize in their count the dots contest. I have come across many different versions of these contests, most appearing in the early 1900's. This one is from October 1909 - almost 100 years ago.
Most of the paper dolls on this site are from newspaper archives. All newspaper items have been copied in black and white. I have added color to some of the paper dolls. All of the coloring contests for movies and from ads were found searching through newspapers.
