I need to clear some space on my shelves, so I must part with some of my collection. I am WAY out of my element on this one, so bear with me. The Swedish company Lundby began producing lines of dollhouses and dollhouse furniture in the 1940s. The Göteborg (Gothenburg) style was launched in 1959 and is still popular today under the Småland name (since 2006). A more modern style, Stockholm, was started in 1975 and updated in 2005. In 1997, Micki of Sweden acquired the Lundby brand and has continued its development. These dolls and dollhouses will continue to be a part of children’s lives and will feed their imaginations and creativity for generations to come.

 

This listing is for the Småland Pushchair and Baby Set and contains:

 

1.     Pushchair (Stroller) with silver frame and orange fabric seat

2.     Baby / toddler figure with removable clothes and movable joints

3.     Pink outfit (for girl?)

 

I found no listing for this set on eBay (very rare), but as a Top Rated Plus US Seller, I have this in stock and can reliably ship this to you quickly. Here are some of the details about this hard-to-find set that I found from around the web:

 

The Lundby website (mickiofsweden.com) no longer has a listing for this set, although there are several sets with a baby. They simply describe those other sets this way: “Doll house doll with removable clothes and can move their limbs.” From other sources, I have found the following information about this ‘infantile’ set.

 

§  1:16 scale (3/4” = 12”)

§  Highly detailed plastic parts molded in silver and Caucasian flesh tone

§  Silver Stroller (Pushchair) with black wheels and orange fabric seat

§  Fully jointed baby with pink outfit

 

There are many reviews of the Lundby line of products, and they all seem to share a theme: Mom’s love them! You can find detailed reviews by Kim at shopwithmemama.com, Carolyn at mommyramblings.org and Colleen at classymommy.com. You can see plenty of rooms all lit up and even some assembly shots. Of course, there are also dozens of YouTube videos on these products, as well.

 

This set comes in a colorfully decorated 8” x 6” x 2” box with a clear molded plastic cover to show the contents. As you can see from the pictures, the package is pristine and still sealed with tape disks, so I consider it factory sealed and absolutely gift-ready.

 

This item contains a “Umbroller”-style Pushchair with a baby, completely jointed and clothed in a colorful outfit to add to your doll family. I use eBay Managed Payments, but I no longer ship internationally. Auction winner pays the winning bid and for a limited time, this item is offered with $5 Flat Rate Shipping in the US!

 

No reserve and a low starting bid. Check out my other great auctions and listings for combined shipping. Good luck!

 

Those familiar with my listings can tell that I really enjoy these products and the modeling hobby. I like to provide more than just the bare facts about the items, trying to lead you into discovering more about the subjects and optimizing your builds (if that is your goal). I started out picking up models that I was interested in, with the eye toward building them when I had time. Always a bargain-hunter, I accumulated many more than I can build, so I found myself in a Collector status (sounds nicer than a hoarder).

 

As I am sure you have noticed, my items are almost always sealed and in mint condition (I call them Gift-Ready), since I only open them when I am ready to build them. Now I enjoy making these products available to my fellow modelers; both Builders and Collectors. For the Builders, there are probably better (at least cheaper) ways to add to your project lists than buying from me, but you know you are getting top quality. For Collectors, my goal is to save you a few bucks over the competition for the same item in factory sealed and collectible (or resellable) condition.
