I believe the most popular dolls house was called “The Franklin”.
“Franklin” has a wonderfully obscure Yeltz connection.

the most famous (non-football) person that we’ve had at The Grove.
Ahem.
At the risk of upsetting Doc ..... Villa, England, Italian clubs, Worcs City legend Gerry Hitchens was a Halesowen resident. I expect my Dad told him about The Town while serving him bacon and eggs etc
Gerry Hitchens lived in a semi detached in Longmoor Road this side of the boulevard, whilst a Villa player,I hear Sergio Aguero is looking to rent
a flat down Andrew Road whilst serving out his time on a one year contract at Birmingham City!!

What about the whole cast of '........'- can't remember the title but it starred Robert Vaughan and others. It was about a dodgy owner who was going to use the football club as a front? It was during the MM time so it was a bit too close to reality to be true.

It was called Hustle. it was not a total coincidence that the dodgy owner in the programme wore a camel haired coat similar to a certain G Ingram Esq

Wikipedia has further details
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hustle_(TV_series). The in question required a freestanding green door to appear at the Stourbr*dge Road for a few weeks. it was more mobile than some our defenders of that period
