The Dollhouse #7

This incredible Doll House, made by Paul Cumbie in 1883, 
was modelled on Petit Chateau (or The Vanderbilt House), 
an amazing chateuesque mansion built between 1878-82.




It was located at 660 Fifth Avenue on the Upper East Side in 
NYC, but sadly demolished in 1926 to make way for offices!
