    Description

    This doll has 2 dates on her back-1960 and 1961. She does not come with clothes, she's damaged [her arm goes in the socket and will stay when dressed, but it is loose and needs repaired], and creepy [her pull string to speak is present, but her voice is hauntingly crackled and difficult to understand what she's saying]. Her talk action could probably be repaired but I am listing it as damaged due to the unclear words and squeal sounds that are heard when the string is pulled. She also has a burn mark on her butt along with other minor damage to her body. Her face is in pretty good condition-her eyes open and close with ease and her hair is manageable.
    Please view all pictures for detailed information and condition of item, and feel free to ask questions.
    Please consider camera flash/no flash may make photos look brighter or darker than actual color/texture of item.
    I describe the item to the best of my ability; please consider that perceptions of condition and/or color of an item can be subjective- condition or perspective descriptions can differ among sellers and buyers "tan" might be "beige" to one person and light brown to another, so please inquire if you have any questions or would like new pictures under specific light/background.
    Many of my listed items are used & are sold "As is" unless noted differently in the description. You will get what is pictured.
    Multiple pictures with different views are taken to show condition, some of which I keep on a hard drive until the items sells and feedback is left.
    Most of my listed items are vintage, retro, or over a decade old [some are new] and are not in perfect condition, though I try to focus most images on defects and disclose defects to the best of my ability, I may miss something. With each item that is photographed, I cello-wrap it immediately after, and re-photograph and re-wrap it after each sale.
    Please be advised that 'used' or 'previously owned' items might show signs of normal use such as scuffs, creases, small dings/dents, age marks, dirt, dust, etc. I generally only gently clean items as to not compromise the patina or original colors-I leave this up to the buyer to clean at their own discretion-therefore, items may need cleaning/freshened up/ironed.
    Seller Feedback will be left after Buyer feedback is received
