    Description

    You're bidding on a nice, early-looking girl doll - composition head and hands, cloth body, jointed arms & legs. She is 12" long with molded hair, hand-painted fair facial features with rosy cheeks and beautiful blue eyes which open and close when she lays down to sleep. I cannot find any manufacturer marks or branding. She still wears what are probably her original clothes, including a beautiful dress with petticoat and undergarment. My guesstimate of age, just based on clothes, composition and appearance, is circa 1920s, maybe 1930s.
    Note some issues of condition - some residue on the back of her hair, perhaps from a past wig, although her molded hair is probably her original state. Some light scratch and crazing on the face, and some light crack lines on her neck just below her left ear. Her right hand exhibits substantial loss of paint. Visible soil to her cloth legs and feet. SOLD AS IS AS FOUND.
    That said, her eyes still work, as do her jointed arms and legs, and her face and expression are in remarkable and charming condition. Please review photos carefully to make your own determination of overall condition and appeal, and don't hesitate to ask any questions prior to bidding - thanks for looking!
