Bewitching Brows
Instagram user Ladyluja created this Old Hag character for Halloween a couple years ago. She said "the makeup is a mix of cheap Halloween-store face paint and Smashbox Master Class Palette 2." It was her first attempt using a prosthetic piece. Not bad!

R. John Wright - Snow White & Seven Dwarfs Felt Dolls
Over the last quarter century, R. John Wright Dolls Incorporated of Bennington, Vermont has created a variety of Disney dolls, including Cinderella, Pinocchio, and Mickey & Minnie Mouse. However, their affiliation with the Disney Company got its start with a Snow White series--first introduced in 1988 at the International Toy Fair and then released to the public the next year. The dolls were produced between 1989 and 1993.
"The Seven Dwarfs" are seen here, advertised in the November/December 1988 issue of Storyboard--Your Disneyana Magazine (Volume 1, Number 6).
The fully jointed dolls are made from molded wool felt and include hand painted features. The dwarfs also have mohair beards. They stand 9" tall. Six of them are limited editions of 2500. Dopey is 3500. Individually numbered with an attached paper label, each is also adorned with RJW imprint button.
"The lower numbers were offered as matched number sets and the higher numbers were sold individually. Each came enclosed in its own deluxe RJW presentation box and included a signed and numbered certificate of authenticity, a descriptive booklet, and the forms for owner registration."

Bashful & Sneezy.
