Paul seems like such a pure, genuine soul! You’re lucky to have such a great brother and he’s lucky to have a great sister. It’s lovely that you have each other ♥️
Good to see your brother again. Quite the variety of dolls.. I had a Kewpie when I was small. My daughter had one too...Cookie..she couldn't say Kewpie...My youngest daughter had talking Chatty Patty. We had to make a rule that Patty couldn't talk during church. I made matching outfits for her and her dolls. I enjoy sewing for dolls still..I always checked to see who the costume designer was in film when I was young. I enjoy some of the oder doll patterns. You will have to get Paul to be on again..Stay well and safe. From Tennessee
wow, Paul is lovely, I have 5 brothers and love them to bits, I see you both share the passion for dolls and this is fab, he has such a gorgeous smile, good luck sorting all the dolls, when the shop is ready for them...lol and also for Paul and his you tube xxx
Glad someone else thought Paul had a gorgeous smile too! 🙂 You two were so fun to watch. Hope to see more of you together and maybe Paul's own AG TH-cam channel soon!
Paul! I have 5 American Girls! I am a guy in my 40’s! Courtney is my favorite! I love them! Like the kid I never had! But Tonner dolls are my favorite as well!
I loved looking through these treasures. I enjoyed Pauls last home tour. Would love to see some new displays with American Girl restoration. What a nice family!!
Great video and oh, did this ever bring back memories! I helped a friend sort through his mother's HUGE doll collection.We donated many 1980s and 1990s Barbies in original boxes to a local Catholic school auction. Also many of those dolls that are expensive collectors, but not to play with. We donated many more to a place that gave toys to needy children at Christmas. And I STILL have the last of the collection. Many #3 Barbies in beautiful clothes, old bisque head/kid body dolls from long ago, a Shirley Temple who needs new bands...so many and I don't know what to do with them! I wish I lived closer to you! I've always wanted to learn to repair the dolls who's inner bands broke, but have never had the time or inclination to pursue it. It was nice to "meet" your brother today, too.
Sasha is in her original outfit and most likely is a Trenton, sold by Creative Playthings in New Jersey, early 1970's. She seems to need re-stringing, as I notice her head is quite wobbly. You're correct, her hair has been cut. It should be shoulder length. I have one like her and she also needs to be restrung, as I had her sitting for a long time, and I now learned they are meant to stand on their own, which helps avoid that problem.
Great to see Paul again. I wonder how he is displaying the American girls dolls . Talking about repair well I do have lots of doll heads without shoulder plates. Well my brain have to hamster in wheels thinking I can attach the head to the topper of a Lactaid milk jar. Yeah crazy creation that I will go for it to see if does work 😅
Hi, I'm newly retired and my new hobbie is dolls. I have always loved dolls, and I am trying to find my childhood dolls. I also like Madame Alexander dolls, which I recently discovered when HRH QEII passed away.
Hi Paul, good to see you again. Rachel, I know you and your team know a lot about fixing and restoring dolls. When you came across the Crissy doll, I wanted to grab her and restore her. Fixing the eyes and detangling the hair is especially rewarding. Have fun.
@@RachelHoffmanDolls I would love to do videos, but haven't yet. On this subject, I'm sure there are already videos out there. I picked up my info on Crissy line dolls over time from various sources. This doll looked like a great challenge.
@@RachelHoffmanDolls I am very sorry. I did some research on TH-cam and found very little on Crissy doll fixing (I assumed wrong). Muneca, Poupee, and Doll has good info on cleaning, and eyes. Amber Ruxpin has some tips on removing head if needed. There are about 4 others who had some tips, but... Sorry, I directed you wrong.
I know Paul from your videos and am now shocked to learn that he is your brother! The apple doesn't fall far from the tree! Would Paul say, "Mom aways liked me best?"
Thank you for sharing your fun with us. I find myself holding my breath when you do these unboxing! Will you be listing the Sasha on eBay anytime soon? I know very little about them but that one made me really pay attention! Thanks again for all the hard work you do to make these videos possible!
OMG love the bye lo baby. I love the barbie too! I love them ALL!!!! Please let me know if your selling any on ebay! Great Video and nice meet your brother Paul! I agree with him. I love my dolls dirty and cleaning them up!!! God Bless YOU Both!!!! I be watching for your brother on Utube
I have a couple Sasha dolls but went to an antique doll store and she had some old vintage ones and she did not know about the newer ones so I have to take them to show her. The old ones are bigger. I have found some great AG dolls two pleasant company older ones Josephina and Addie and have various AG dolls. Great to meet your older brother Paul and looking forward to his channel(s). Doll hauls are so much fun with the anticipation and mystery. Does your hubby have a ceramics channel?
Rachel. Are you going to reopen the store to the public at some point in time? Will you have any in-person events/classes some day down the road? Also would be cool to get a tour of Derek's studio!
Hi! No. It’s too dangerous on South Broadway to be open for public hours but we will be open by appointment. We will also have private events down the road. 🎉
Lovely dolls. It’s special to see someone’s collection. I especially love the Titian Barbie. Will she be available on eBay? So nice to meet your brother. What a sweet❤️guy!
Really enjoyed digging through those doll boxes with you & Paul. It occurred to me that the 1890's dancing couple might be praying mantis dolls, since the man has lost his head. D'you think? You mentioned that during the last video you did with Paul at his house, you went through his cupboards. So I can't help wondering, are you by chance his older sister? Lol, anyway, you & Paul are obviously your mother's children, since you're both such charming people. Did I hear you say that there's a new Virtual Doll Convention coming up? Gosh, must watch out for that one, and also for Paul's new channel! Can't wait. Thanks, Both!
I THINK the old cloth doll might be a "Cobo Alice"...years ago I remember an article about them and their primitive faces that were painted on with a matchstick.
Rachel, It was very nice to meet your Brother, Paul in this video😃😃!! I think American Girl Dolls are really beautiful and I would like to see Paul's Collection😃😃👍👍! And Rachel, You got some really nice Dolls too😃😃👍👍 !! I can not wait to see how Linda or\and Paul or\and Stan fixes up these treasures😃😃💖💖💖!!! My favorites of your haul are: BYE Lo Doll, ❤Barbie with red hair that looks like she is from the 1960s❤, Sasha Doll💙, Italian Doll💚🤍❤, Alexanderkins with dress💖, Pug Pillow💜, and the mini Walrus💖💖💖💖💖💖💖!!!!! And Rachel🤗, I have a question @7:00 you show a Mini Doll with blonde hair and call her Pebbles, I have a similar Doll that my Late Great Aunt gave me that looks almost exactly like this Doll, except my Doll has curly red hair, Do you know which company made this Doll and what she was called?🤗Thank you so much Rachel for sharing this awesome Doll Haul 💜💜💜💜💜👍👍😃😃!!!
Do you sell any of these Littles or you just keep them in collect them? And if you do sell them do you sell them for a lot so a person can afford them on a fixed income?
Give away and sell. When we do list this kind of thing, it’s generally on eBay, and it all starts at $1.00 opening bid. None of the items here could be sold for “a lot”. If anything came in this lot that was valuable, we would pay for it. I sent this person a check to cover the expensive shipping.
Hi Rachel, Hi brother Paul....good solid names. I have a AG doll that bubba Paul might want to check out. Not sure whats the safest way to have him communicate with me. Do you have any suggestions? She's free, just shipping cost if he likes her. Thank you. Debbie
Im so sorry, I am having no luck. Weird things are happening on my phone. Not sure why. Maybe, I can figure something else out. So ver sorry to take up your time. I know its precious. Just wanted to pass on a little goodness. Ill keep working on it.
I was disappointed that you did not show a lot of the small dolls at the base of the box. I collect little dolls mainly. And I don’t mind if they’re cheap plastic ones.
Paul seems like such a pure, genuine soul!
You’re lucky to have such a great brother and he’s lucky to have a great sister.
It’s lovely that you have each other ♥️
Couldn't agree more!
I love baby dolls
You brother Paul seems like a great guy and would like to watch him do AG dolls and cooking videos. Nice unboxing, Thank you Rachel
We will do that! Thanks for tuning in!
I love collecting the dolls from around the world. I can't afford to travel but I love to collect.
Paul does seem very kind. Hopefully we'll see more of Paul 😊
Love to see more of Paul! He seems like an amazing guy and I'd love to watch him tell us about his American Girl dolls 🥰
So nice to see Paul! Can't wait to see his American Girl collection.
He is excited to share it!
ok I want a Paul brother!!!! He is so kind and when cooks he said he can share it with everyone! Love y’all!
Awe thanks!!

Thanks for your comment! Sounds great! And yes he does! It’s called Flux Studio Denver. Thanks for asking!
@@RachelHoffmanDolls Watched one of Derek's videos. Great demonstration. I will definitely watch more.😊
Rachel. Are you going to reopen the store to the public at some point in time? Will you have any in-person events/classes some day down the road?

Hi! No. It’s too dangerous on South Broadway to be open for public hours but we will be open by appointment. We will also have private events down the road. 🎉
So many Byelo babies!
Only one in this haul but millions and millions were made for sure!!
Lovely dolls. It’s special to see someone’s collection. I especially love the Titian Barbie. Will she be available on eBay? So nice to meet your brother. What a sweet❤️guy!
No, sorry, I gave her to our merchandiser who is helping us today and is a huge Barbie fan! Thanks for asking!
@@RachelHoffmanDolls I’m sure they were thrilled❤️

The one little doll that you picked up and thought was a little kiddle was actually a Peewee doll.
Thank you!
I THINK the old cloth doll might be a "Cobo Alice"...years ago I remember an article about them and their primitive faces that were painted on with a matchstick.
Thank you so much!
Can you please do more flea market and garage and estate sale videos? They are fun to watch!
We definitely can when we can go to them. Thanks for the feedback!
I want the Barbie! ❤️❤️❤️

YOU DON’T HAVE TO HAVE A REASON! Best saying ever, make a tshirt please.
It’s so true!! We should make a t shirt!
I’ve been obsessed with clones lately so AG is pretty reasonable to me.
They are super fun dolls!
Paul looks like your Mom❤
He does!!
I wish I couldreach paul. I've looked for him in all social media media can't find him
👏👍
How do you process all that you take in?
We do not have a routine system have a hard time with it! We have a lot in storage.
Do you sell any of these Littles or you just keep them in collect them? And if you do sell them do you sell them for a lot so a person can afford them on a fixed income?

You could try info@virtualdollconvention.com for photos. They might be too large. Try one photo. Thanks!

Hi! We recommend donating to a good cause in your area.
🙋♀️❤

I was disappointed that you did not show a lot of the small dolls at the base of the box. I collect little dolls mainly. And I don’t mind if they’re cheap plastic ones.
