~PLEASE SEE MY OTHER AUCTIONS FOR OTHER VINTAGE DOLLS~This auction is for a beautiful antique German bisque head doll. Marked: HANDWERCK 9. Rare huge size - about 44" tall. Beautiful bisque head. Pretty bisque "complexion", open mouth with teeth & dimpled chin. Blue sleep eyes. Original human hair wig. Pierced ears. Comes with clothing shown. Previous owner said that she purchased her at an auction of an old time store that closed down and that she was used as a mannequin/display in the store. She was wearing the clothing shown.(Please understand that I am not able to ship any items until the week-end following payment during the school year. Payment must be received by the Thursday before the week-end to be shipped. Thank you.) _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________CONDITIONHas ALL parts, but needs some restoration. One arm/shoulder ball joint was inside of the body, but I got it out - not shown, but it is included. Perfect bisque head. Left eyeball needs repaired, but piece is there - just needs glued back on. Ball of right leg/hip joint is broken in half - looks like at a seem as break is smooth & even. Torso needs work. One part of arm hole is broken loose & inside of torso. The other arm hole is partially hanging on, but needs repair. Crack in right shoulder. Missing her wig pate. Hair is nice, but a little messy. Needs re-strung. (Stringing was very loose, so I cut stringing for easier shipping. Again, she is no longer strung & will need to be re-strung.) Clothing wrinkled & will be more so, I'm sure, after shipping. View photos. Take advantage of magnifier. Use photos & text to help determine condition. Ask questions if you have any.

I cleaned it off with a damp cloth. If you would like a new photo showing that there is no mark there, please email me. Also, notice the right ear. There are 2 black marks on the ear that I was not able to clean off - not cracks, just markings of some kind that I was not able to remove. Look at the ear in the photo and you will be able to see it. Thank you!
