You are bidding on an early Lenci child model # 149 in need of lots of tender loving care!
She is 16” tall and has the most plaintive, woebegone look on her face. Her side-glancing brown eyes give her the soulfu...l and endearing look that Lenci dolls are known for. She has a hard-stuffed cloth torso, tab jointed felt arms and legs and is completely poseable.
Her face, torso and limbs are extremely stained and dirty and she's obviously also having a very "bad hair day."
She is wearing only her original onesie and needs a complete new wardrobe.
Condition: This little urchin looks like she just took a tumble in a mud puddle. She was obviously well-loved, so much so that she's lost all her clothing. She reminds me of a young Eliza Doolittle badly in need of a makeover!
This hard-to-find Lenci is still adorable and just needs a ton of new loving to make her presentable again. She would be a real challenge for a serious Lenci restorer.
Here is your chance to add this adorable little angel to your Lenci collection.
Please check my other auctions this week for more early Lenci dolls.
Good luck and happy bidding!
