My Hall's Collection

Halls Lifetime Toys

Hall's Lifetime Toys, Chattanooga Tennessee
1 inch scale dollhouse furniture

I stumbled on to a few pieces of Hall's after going into a local antique/vintage store.  I asked if they had any dollhouse furniture and the clerk said he did have shoebox full somewhere.  He went into the back room and returned with the box.  I had remembered seeing some of it in some of Dian Zillner's books.  It is sturdy all wood construction and painted.  None of the doors or drawers are operable.

I have not actively been looking for anymore, but it is kind of fun to own something from "my generation"  I have noticed a piece or two come up for auction on Ebay.

 

The kitchen set has some very '70's contact paper added to it.  I do not know if this is original or not.


 

 A few of the pieces have these metalic stickers on the back.

 

The bedroom set is light blue and in very good shape.  The bed has a mattress and a small floral print bedspread.  The rocker seams kind of "clunky" to me.

  1. I've asked and asked at antique and thrift shops about dollhouses and furniture. No luck yet. I like the "clunky" rocker! :D

  2. I just bought a dollhouse from Craigslist. I'm wondering if it might be the Plantation House by Hall's Lifetime Toys? I can't seem to find any information about it or photos. Do you have any ideas?

  3. I have a Hall's Lifetime Toys Dollhouse----The Hermitage. Bought new in 1979. Would like to sell it now but shipping it is out of the question.
