ANTIQUE CLOTH BOY DOLL Disk Joints Kathe Kruse type VTG HAND PAINTED FORMED FACE
An adorable, vintage, little boy doll with a cloth over papier-mache? mask face that is formed with actual features and ears. He has the look of a Kathe Kruse doll but is not marked, that I can see. The cloth is handpainted with blue or hazel eyes, brown lashes, pink lips, and brown wisps of hair. He is disk jointed at the arms and legs and has stitched fingers on his hands.&nb...sp; This doll is wearing his original pants, shirt, cloth shoes (that were made to look like wooden shoes with a cotton stuffed toe), and socks. I'm sure he had a hat but it is missing. The shirt and pants are all pinned to him, so I don't dare take them off....I will probably never get them back on correctly. He measures approximately 12 1/2" high and is in good condition with only minor flaws... His head has a 1" area of the seam that is starting to open and, on the back of his head, is a 1/2" area of a seam that is open (see photos). I could take his shoes and socks off to show the bottom part of his legs have brown spots on them (see photo) but his arms and face look fine (the farther up his legs looks good too). He is soiled and could use a little attention. Despite minor flaws, this old doll is a Sweetheart! The expression on his face will melt your heart. This adorable doll will make a special addition to any collection. Being offered with no reserve.
