(23.5cm.) high (paint flaking); a black boy shooting game (slight damage); two Robinson Golly badges; a tinplate Halloween trumpet; seven cards of a black man in a boater with moving eyes and teeth; and other items. These items are listed on the basis they are illustrative of by a gone culture in which there were different social norms. We understand the potential controversy surrounding this type of item but believe that providing transparent information about historical context fosters greater understanding of our complex cultural history. Originally handmade by mothers in Africa for their children from old fabric and cloth, the golly doll was adopted as the mascot and trademark for the Robertson's confectionery brand around 1910 after the company's founder John Robertson visited the US and noticed children playing with them.

The trademark was removed from Robertson's branding in 2001.
