   A request for identification:   
      
   "Hi Phil, I called and spoke to someone about this little dollhouse that I   
   have.  I am desperately looking for any info that I can get on it, including   
   its value.  I was told to take a lot of photos, and give as much information   
   as possible with the hopes that some of your readers can help me to identify   
   it.  So here are the photos and what I know.  I am pretty sure that it was   
   bought in Germany in the 60's or early 70's.  It has absolutely no markings on   
   it.  It does appear to be hand painted.  The overall size of the "house" is   
   19" wide, 11" deep and 6" high.  The clock is 7 1/2" high and still works if   
   you use the key to wind it up.  The bed is 4 1/2" high, 5 1/2" long and 3 1/2"   
   wide.  the cradle is 2 1/2" long and the wardrobe is 4 1/2" high.  Does anyone   
   have any idea what the item with the yellowish/orange round thing on top on   
   the left side of the overall photo is?  There was once a bench that would go   
   with the table, but it broke and I can't seem to find it.  If anyone can help   
   me with additional information I'd be so appreciative!  Thank you, Doris W."   
   Doris has sent us many photos of the dollhouse and all of its furniture that   
   you can see here:
