What is astonishing is that that each piece was made by hand before the age of computers.

Basically my point exactly, the fine art of craftsmanship gone for ever or only the very few can do such things, everything is made from plastic and brakes easily. In days gone by you had things made from decent materials like metal and glass and porcelain. Nowadays if those quality materials are use they of very low standard.

Chucky I found much creepier than Annabelle, though she is still pretty darn creepy too.

As for the OP, that is quite something. Amazing really Smile

Wow that "doll" is impressive! Wish they had taken us to that museum when I took a school funded trip to Switzerland. Would have been better than what felt like walking around aimlessly the whole time lol
So lost in your addiction
The solemn comfort of your grave
If you close your eyes the light can't take it away

Reach back behind your pride
And pull the thorn from the burning pain in your side
