The police hold auctions of confiscated and lost property periodically!

You could go ask Robinsons if they have any left. But they have probably sold them all for an absolute fortune on e-bay. Or you just ask customers to gift some.

The pub in Essex (which this question clearly refers to) said that their collection came from donations from their customers. So some dolls might have come from childhood collections, whereas others might have been purchased by customers on their holidays abroad.

However it's not that many years since I found a stall, in a covered market in Great Yarmouth, selling absolutely nothing else!
