Dewees Cochran
15" |
 |
Long-legged Girl
$695. |
 |
The
child portrait dolls made by Ella Dewees Cochran have been popular since
their original production in the 1930's, having been made of composition and
later marketed by the Effanbee company. After WWII in 1947, she began
production of the latex model named "Cindy" having this especially gentle,
realistic face with painted features and inset hair. |
 |
 |
The body is jointed at the neck, shoulders and hips and has lanky, elongated
legs and a slim torso and arms. She wears what appears to be her
original, organdy dress with open work and original pantaloons, and her
specifically designed and fitted Mary Jane type shoes with white anklet
socks. For fear of damaging the shoes, they have not been removed.
Something fun and different for your collection! |

Vintage Artist Parian Lady
21" |
 |
High Quality Craftsmanship
$225. |
 |
 |
The artist who crafted this parian lady with
molded black hair was truly gifted, as until you see the signature on the
back of the shoulders (Claremaid 1963), you will be studying her,
wondering which antique doll firm may have made her. Untinted white
parian bisque on her face and shoulders with blue painted eyes, soft shading
and impeccable artistry make way to notice her pierced ears and her
intricate hairdo with a row of black ringlet curls on her forehead to a high
up-do in the back and a molded violet hairband with gold accents. She
has a cloth body with posed parian hands and molded shoes that are boots
with laces. Clothing is of antique lace, cotton and silk ribbon. |

Little Henry Paper Doll ca. 1810 |
 |
with Book and Sleeve $675. |
 |
 |
 |
Incredibly charming, seldom seen collection of
paper dolls from the Little Henry and Little Fanny series of 1810, where
there is a story about the character told in a bound book of separate poems
enclosed in original sleeve (overall wear to book cover and sleeve due to
age, but paper dolls excellent). Rare and vibrant, hand water-colored
outfits. |
 |
 |
 |
For each poem that marks an event or era in Little Henry's life,
there is a corresponding paper outfit that can be mounted beneath the doll's
paper head, making each story come to life! The rare and precious
piece is complete except for one outfit at the end of the story and the
sleeve has considerable ink staining on the outside front sleeve, some on
the back. Sleeve measures 5" X 4". |

Cissy
20" |
 |
The Judy McDonald Collection
SOLD |
 |
 |
 |
There is something special about the Madame
Alexander "Cissy", as she has an undeniable glamour and importance that is
displayed in her sweet and sophisticated face, her statuesque, high-heeled
body, and her chic wardrobe from her time of arrival in the 1950's.
She is hard plastic, except for her vinyl arms, she has blue sleep eyes, a
clean complexion and honey blond, plentiful hair that has been restyled. |
 |
 |
 |
Her tagged, midnight blue outfit is tagged, being a two-piece number that is
a full-skirted dress and the matching bolero that falls off the shoulders.
The bolero is tied on with the original knotting and I chose not to try to
undo the knot for fear of damaging the garment. She has her original
underpants and crisp net petticoat that fills her flowing skirt. Also
included are her original stockings and black high-heeled shoes. On top of
it all is her faux fur stole, a Madame Alexander cylinder accessory box and
a straw had adorned with flowers that look to have been added.
From the long-loved collection of Judy McDonald. |
