Her head is in wonderful original condition with one speck of bisque out of the top wig area shown in pictures and she has two very faint hairlines ....one on a chee...k and the other on a shoulder shown in the 8th picture. Only a doll person would even know what they are they are so faint and do not go all the way through. Wig is not glued down. Area around where wig was was cleaned off to check for any damage and nothing was found except the speck of slip on back area shown in photo. She has no hairlines showing with a light, no cracks or repairs. Her wig is original in good condition while her scull cap is in ruff condition made of a plaster material.

Leather of arms look to have been upgraded at one time, but lower arms are hers....old and same color with no damage. her feet are cloth, but the socks are sewn over them to were they can not be photographed or removed. She has her original leather shoes that need some work to the seams due to age they are in fragile condition. She has an old water stain on her body.
