Petra Plasty Cosimo Dolls

In the course of my doll collecting and thrifting, I find all sorts of neat things. Case in point is this pair of German dolls made by Plasty:

After a bit of research, I found out they were Petra family Cosimo dolls. Petra was a Barbie knock off made in Germany starting in 1964. These two little cuties are clearly from the 80's. They are marked "Plasty" on the backs of their heads.

I bought these dolls on a whim for 99 cents because I thought they were different and they appeared to be well made. I'm very glad I did get them! While they will not remain a permanent part of my collection, I'm glad I found them and had the chance to learn about them!
