Abstract

Actuating linkage contained within each arm and hand of the doll causes the three middle fingers of either hand to be flexed from an extended relation to a clenched condition when the arm for that particular hand is raised. When the arm is lowered, then the middle fingers are automatically unclenched. The clenching action is independent of whatever degree of wrist rotation may exist.
