Mariquita Pérez

Mariquita Pérez is a Spanish doll thought up by Mrs Leonor Coello de Portugal in 1938. It was the most famous doll of the 1940s and 1950s in Spain, although it was produced until 1976. It is regarded as the best doll ever made in Spain as well as one of the best of its time in Europe because of its craft production, the quality of the used materials and the wealth of wardrobe and accessories. It was inspired by other dolls such as the French Bleuette and the Argentine Marilú.[1]
