The E-UNC Walter H Baker's Chocolate Die Cut Paper Doll series appears to be a series of (6) different die cut paper dolls. The dolls are about 5-6 inches long and about 2-1/2" tall in the center. The cards have tabs at the end which are meant to be turned around to form a circle and the tab inserted to allow for the doll face to show in the front while the circle makes the base for the doll to stand. The cards are particularly condition sensitive--especially at the point of the tabs. The dolls have Walter H Baker's Chocolate advertisement on the backs of the paper dolls. The Baker's chocolate brand is still in widespread use and is the primary baking chocolates used by bakers. Walter H Baker's also issued a number of other trade cards. In small print on the left side of the trade card, there is the phrase "copyright 1897 by W.H. Baker".
This Lot of (2) cards from the Walter H Baker's Die Cut Paper Dolls series in VGEX condition and mostly clean. The backs are clean with full print and no damage to the tabs.
