Sweet larger German bisque head baby doll by Hertel Schwab.... Marked "Made in Germany 152 10".... This doll is an unusual survivor as it is 100% factory original.... Retains its original mohair wig, cardboard pate, red polka dot romper with belt, and lace-trimmed undergarment....
Bisque head is free of damage or repairs.... Original blue glass sleep eyes retain original eyelid paint/wax and internal plasters.... Paper mache' body retains 100% original paint in very clean condition.... Only flaw is some flaking of the composition coating on the front of one leg (last photo)....
Original polka dot romper is very thin and frail with split side seams and some shredding on one arm (13th photo).... From a non-smoking and pet-free home.. Please study all photos, feel free to ask questions, and be sure to check out my other interesting antique auctions! I always carefully stuff these bisque heads to protect the fragile glass eyes.
