Show . . 1 1 r? j I lo'jrs Into i ''n'c re Doll House T, I : A! .0.-1' ;ht hund red dollars dol-lars is the a'-.'ned value of a doll humx- owned by the Sisters of St. Joseph, but no value can be placed on the skill which went into the making of the miniature refrigerator, refrigera-tor, tmy piano and minute grandfather grand-father clock part of the house's equipment. Philip J. Dentinger Jr., who made the miniature structure and donated it to the Sisters, put 1,500 hours of work into the house. Dentinger, a wood carver by hobby, built all the items to a scale of three-fourths of an inch to a foot. The windows are sliding sash affairs af-fairs with real glass; the french doors are glazed full length; white pine is used for siding, and miniature minia-ture cedar shingles for the roof. And the household equipment would delight the most meticulous collector, collec-tor, for it includes two fireplaces, lace curtains, clothes chute and comnlete bath fixtures. |
