Update on the Shirley Temple Exhibit 2015

A TREASURED GIFT

Marlene Bitzer is shown (at left) with the Shirley Temple collection of dolls that she has donated to the museum’s permanent collection following their exhibit over the holidays.

The dolls were from her mother Kathleen Bitzer Seitz’s vast Shirley Temple collection gathered over many decades while residing in Lincoln Park. Kathleen’s husband Arlo Seitz has also donated two life-size Shirley Temple dolls from her collection.

We are grateful to both of these good friends for their generous gifts in memory of mother and wife.
