This sweet doll is a large 22 1/2 flat top. She has a black and white checkered dress with little black dots on it. I do not know the age of the dress or other garments she is wearing but I do not think they are original to her. The white sleeves are not attached to the dress. She has a little scarf wrapped around her shoulders and chest and tied in the back.
She has two undergarments, Pantaloons and a slip that look like they are cotton. The slip has patches sewn in the front and repairs to the back due to age. She also comes with black cotton socks that go up to her thighs and brown velvety booties with black ribbon laces. She has kid arms which are wrapped in some sort of tape to keep them together.Her body is cloth and looks original to me and filled with either cotton or sawdust I'm not sure. Her shoulder plate measures about 7" across and plate from top of head measures about 6 1/2".
Looks like the head was taken off at some time and tied back on with newer ties 3 each front and back. Face and plate looks very good with no chips, scuff or cracks.
There is a dark beauty mark on the front left side of her shoulder. She has blue eyes and rosy cheeks.
The back of her black hair has some slight wear. Above her feet are some repairs. The back of her legs have a few stains of some sort. Since we are only allowed 12 photos I have tried to post the main issues of this doll.
