The dolls look like those troll dolls that the kids were collecting a few years ago! A very happy scene with interesting dresses and hats on view! There are footballers in the background, what would they have been playing? Soccer, rugby, American Football???

Those are actually baseball players. Baseball and hockey were the two main sports in the Coal Branch. There was a friendly but intense rivalry between the different towns in the Coal Branch. Men who were really good at either sport would sometimes get hired on just to be ringers at these kinds of events!

Good point! These communities were literally cut out of the wilderness and most of them have since gone back to the wilderness.
