This is a simply awesome vintage Alaskan eskimo seal fur seal doll circa 1960s. The eskimo children didnt have many things to play with so the elders would make these dolls for them. They are like a teddy bear or barbies to us, It measures 4" long and 2.5" tall. It is all hand made out of seal fur and sewn with seal sinew. This was given to my mother by Laura Johns An elder from the Tan Across Village, She was one of my mothers dear friends, Laura gave this to my mother while attending a potlatch in 1976, Mom and laura were so very close..My mother attended Lauras Funeral, Some speculate she was 103 years old....... I will include a photo copy of Laura... Please take a look at my other auctions>>>>>>>>>>>>> I would be happy to combine shipping !!!!!!!!! This listing complies with the marine mammal act of 1972, As an Al;askan native handicraft DOLL!!!!!!!!! And ebays own policies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
