Club Notes

The Era of Isobel's Dolls: A Presentation at The Historic
Zimmerman House by The Antique Doll Study Club of Oregon

T

he Antique Doll Study Club of Oregon
presents some extraordinary programs and
displays for the public, thanks to our innovative
and creative members.  On September 21, 2019,
for Smithsonian Museum Day, we presented a
display of antique dolls representing a particular
era in the Zimmerman House in Gresham,
Oregon. The Historic Zimmerman House was
built in 1874 and was home to three generations
of the Zimmerman Family.  Their furnishings
and personal articles remain in this two-story
Victorian home, with nine rooms open to the
public. The third and last generation to occupy
the house consisted of four daughters: Jessie,
Olive, Mabel, and the youngest, Isobel. Isobel was
born in 1899 and lived in the house until the end
of her life in 1992. Amazingly, the Zimmerman
House still holds the contents of three generations
Club members Edwardian Dolls on display in the Zimmerman
who lived there, and the rooms display life in the
House in Gresham, Oregon
early twentieth century.
The era of Isobel's childhood
was 1899 to about 1913.  This
is the period we chose for our
presentation of dolls.  The dolls
we displayed represented those
that would have been available
in stores and catalogs during the
time of Isobel's childhood.
The Antique Doll Study
Club of Oregon, presenting this
display, has been a member
of the United Federation of
Doll Clubs for 45 years.  Many
collectors of antique dolls
consider their dolls to be
representatives of the history,
art, and science of the past.
