Item History & Price
I SELL ONLY WITHIN THE U.S. NO INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING OFFERED.
I’m offering today an adorable large baby doll from the 1950's era. This is a large baby doll with molded hair, vinyl face, arms and legs with hard plastic body.
This is a precious large size baby doll. She is truly a beautiful doll and hard to believe she is from the 1950's era. I will start at the top of the doll and work my way down so as not to omit anything in my descript...ion. Starting at the top of her head, she has light brown molded hair which does have some paint loss in the back of the head, but does not detract from the doll. The large bow around her head was designed and created by me so it would match her dress. The ribbon is heavy grosgrain in colors of white and black polka dots with complimentary red and white and black and white polka dot bow. It looks sooooo cute and matches her sweet outfit! As you go down to her face, she has single brown line for eyebrows. She has hazel colored open close sleep eyes with long eyelashes which have been spared from the hands of her previous little mommies. Her eyes open and close freely and have such a precious look to them.
She has a dainty little nose with open nostrils for realism which flow down to her rose bud shape lips. Her lips are painted bright pinkish/red color with open mouth for bottle feeding, but as I recommend with all these older baby dolls I don't think it's wise to give them liquids. Of course, that will be left up to her new mommy. Her cheeks have beautiful coloring to blend well with her beautiful bright eyes.
Her head, arms and legs are heavy vinyl and her body is hard plastic. She has jointed head, arms and legs for posing in such sweet positions. The back of her neck is marked: "25-11" aka/HORSMAN DOLLS 1950's.
Now to her adorable outfit I chose for her debut. This is a designer dress which has a high waist with dainty cap sleeves. The fabric is in black and white flowers with wide red fabric under the bust line. As you go down to the lower part of the dress there are three ruffled layers which flow down to her knees. The back of the dress has three buttons which keeps the dress securely on the doll. The wide red fabric goes around to the back which I've tied a bow to finish off the back side. She is wearing an adorable black sweater which I've sewn a delicate red chiffon flower to compliment the red in the dress. Under her dress she wears black cotton pants which come down to her ankles. I picked some bright red socks which are trimmed with red and white polka dot lace. Her shoes are black mary jane style with a bit of sparkle. The buckle stays secure with adhesive which sticks and holds them in place. This adorable baby doll will come with her very own vintage Winnie the Poo teddy bear to keep her company.
SIZE:
This is a large size baby doll standing approximately 24" tall. Her Winnie the Poo is approximately 7".
CONDITION:
The photos say everything with this doll. She is adorable and what I would say is in good condition for her age. Please note, she is a vintage doll and I'm sure not perfect. I try to disclose anything I see so as not to disappoint anyone. Her hair has a bit of paint loss in the back, but obviously as you can see, this does not detract from the doll. Her eyes open/close freely and she has full eyelashes. Her designer dress is new and was purchased for her. Her socks are new and her shoes are new. She comes from a smoke free home. Her Winnie the Poo is vintage, but has been cleaned. Please view complete set of photos for thorough description. I hope you can take a few minutes to look at my other dolls. God bless you. Connie
