The Leonidas V. Badger Doll House
In 1858, Leonidas V. Badger, built a large doll house based on the Portsmouth New Hampshire home in which he was born in 1806. The house resided for many years in the Badger's Calumet Avenue home, and in the early 1900s was moved to the home of Alpheus Shreve Badger in Kenilworth.
In 1925, the house was given to the Children's Room at the Art Institute, and three years later was donated to the Chicago Historical Society. In 1980, it was given to the National Society of the Colonial Dames in America in the State of Illinois, who placed it in the newly opened Clarke House and funded a major restoration. It was rededicated in 1987 and remains a very popular item for visitors to the museum. [Glessner House Museum, http://www.glessnerhouse.org]
