18 Simon & Halbig DEP 1039 Almond Eyed Bisque Head On Antique Germqn Body

  

Adorable 18 Simon and Halbig 1039 early bisque head. Big almond shaped eyes that can only be found on the 1039. Unfortunately has a small crack on the left back of head starting at the number 8 and moving upward (see pics). The front teeth are also chipped but I've had this doll over 15 years and I always found the chips enchanting - they make her look like a little girl.

The body has some areas of repair/repaint. It's a nice compo body but the lower legs and hands have obviously been replaced. I love the dress, its periwinkle organdy and I freshly laundered and pressed it. It's a party dress but I love the loads of antique lace!

It has an attached crinoline as well. Shoes and socks are vintage and match costume. Wig is nice synthetic, matches brows.

Display ready, holds a pose, comes with stand.
