Antique Composition Doll 28 Inch

Antiques : Dolls

 

Dolls are definitely NOT in my field of expertise, so I will describe as best I can, and include a lot of pictures. Please feel free to email with any specific questions.

She measures 28 inches long, has composition arms, legs and head. The rest of her body is stuffed with straw. There is a squeaker box in her back, and when I move her she tries to say "Momma" It comes out more like a cat's meow, though. She has clear blue eyes, and real eyelashes that are all there. Her sleep eyes open and close freely. She has an open mouth with 2 upper teeth showing. I think this is her original wig, but it has come unglued, so I took the opportunity to photograph her bare head. As you can see in the photos, she has problems with the composition parts. Her face is pretty good, but does have crazing. Her arms are fair, but each hand has a finger missing. Likewise, her legs are decent, but the feet have cracked composition. Please look at all 9 pictures for a better description of condition. No marks that I see. Circa 1920
