Topsy Turvey Creole?

I don't know ANYTHING about dolls, but I spotted these ladies in an antique store, and had to bring them home. They are intriguing!

Before Google I would have simply enjoyed my new roommates - now I'm oh so curious about their history, but have yet to find a dark haired 'white' example.

The faces seem like cloth - only the face is hard - the back of the heads look like a fine burlap, and feel stuffed with something strawlike.
The blue eyed, black haired girl's face looks hand painted - paint is chipping away from the fabric.
Yes, one unit
No shoes

Thanks for responding!

Are the faces molded cloth or molded plastic? How tall is the doll? It is one unit with two heads, one body, right? Shoes?
