Another source would be Dorfman Museum Figures, (410) 685-1670. I dont
have the address.
We get most of our mannequins from Penney's - they've either donated them
or sold them very reasonably. However, we recently had to turn a Penney's
glamor girl, with blue eyeshadow, glossy red lips, and perky wig into a
virginal early 20th century nurse. I'd admired the Metropolitan Museum's
Costume Institute mannequins, which have twisted paper for hair and are
painted a neutral color, generally grey. So with a package of tissue
paper, pins and spray paint, we transformed her and she looks pretty darn
good!
