It is in poor condition but still has the paper log detail on it. Inside is stamped ravenswood on the wood. What is that? What is it worth? Thanks

The first time that I saw one of these Bliss log cabin dollhouses was about 5 years ago on Ebay. I was unaware of who the maker was or any of its history until recently. Last Spring I was thrilled and very fortunate to obtain this dollhouse from Ebay. I have only seen it twice for purchase and the 2 different ones on this Bliss Dollhouse site. I believe it is very rare and I was so surprised that not many people bid on mine or the other one I saw.
Love it!! It is so unusual and rare! Again, I have collected many Bliss, Gottschalk, McLoughlin, Gutter, and Dunham Cocoanut dollhouses but this one is one of my very favorites. I was tickled to learn that it was produced in 1905 as that is the year that my beloved Gramma was born. The background history information was interesting with new facts that I did not know. I would be willing to send pictures of mine if you’d like. I decorated my log house as a frontier/late 1880’s house complete with a lead polar bear.
Best wishes to a fellow collector of dollhouses!
Nancie
