Summary
A plain wooden folding doll's rocking cot. It is made of thin wood which has solid ends attached to the rockers. On these ends is stuck a picture, one of two babies heads - one eating an apple. The picture at the other end shows a nursery with a seated girl holding her doll. Beside her is a cot on wheels, a doll and a teddy. The sides of the cot are strips of crisscrossed wooden lattice which fold, concertina like.
