Description
From my personal collection:The 18" beauty has a full original mohair wig. It was still in the original set when I got her 25 years ago. I refreshed it a little, and it hasn’t been touched since. You can see in her close-ups, there are a few fly-aways in her bangs, which I will leave to the new owner to trim or tuck under.
You can see what a wonderful face this doll has. Her eyes are clear and face paint is beautiful. Eyes open/close correctly.
The body is in excellent condition. The only paint wear I see is underneath and on top of the arms. All other paint seems pretty perfect. This doll is not strung real tight, which prevents her seams from cracking. But the new owner may want to restring her in the next couple years.
The doll’s head is marked R&B at the back base, but it’s really hard to see due to being faint and largely covered by her wig. There are no mold marks on her body.
The dress is a well-made vintage hand sewn item with newer slip and panties. There is no snap on the back of the slip and the elastic in the panties waist has stretched - they do not fall off of her, it’s not that bad.
Shoes are vintage center-snap, but the socks are maybe 25 years old. They look wonderful.
This beauty is essentially ready to display in your collection.
