Mold 1079

The torso and upper legs of her body is of stuffed muslin, her should plate supporting her bisque head is of originally painted composition, her upper arms are fully jointed composition, even at the wrists, and her lower legs are also of composition with joints at the knees. Under her factory, pale blue and white floral cotton frock with lace trim is an equally crisp, white organdy under-dress and matching pantaloons.

Grand Size!

Kammer and Reinhardt

24"
128 Toddler

 ON LAYAWAY

From Kammer and Reinhardt, here is a tall ray of sunshine in a rarer mold, the 128 character on a fully jointed, slant-hip toddler body. This happy girl has brown glass sleep eyes, an open, smiling mouth with upper teeth, peachy, beautiful bisque and shading, and an older, long strawberry blond human hair wig. Look at that healthy toddler body with original finish, chunky limbs, slanted hips and jointed wrists.  

The hands are a slightly different hue from the arms, however this did happen in factories when parts were pulled from the different bins of limbs. After you take in her adorable party dress and matching bonnet made with anitque fabrics, check out her unique undergarments that include cotton pantaloons, of course, then cream silk stocking held up by a full body garter belt! Her polished leather, antique child shoes are incredible as well!
