Description: Local call number: FS80257a Title: [Partially built chickee: Big Cypress Reservation, Florida] Personal Author: Dyen, Doris J., Collector. Date: Photographed on July 15, 1980. Physical descrip: 1 slide: col. General Note: Mary B. Billie has been a dollmaker since she was 17. She learned the skill by watching her mother, who learned it from Mary's grandmother. Accompanying note: "Although she sews the clothes indoors, Mary Billie does most of her dollmaking in her backyard. She is building a chikkee there so that she will be able to work outside whenever she wants to. 'She said when she's making dolls and when you make it in the house, it gets kind of dirty. So she'd rather be out under the chikkee when she's making dolls.'" Series Title: (http://www.FloridaMemory.com/Collections/Folklife/.) Repository: http://www.floridamemory.com/, 500 S.
