I am pleased to offer you this BEAUTIFUL vintage cloth girl doll, unmarked as many of these dolls were. I do not know her past history, possibly Lenci or Lenci type, but will try to describe her the best I can. Reference shows similar dolls made in the 1930s, I could not find an exact photo so I can not be certain. She has a pressed felt swivel head, original blonde mohair wig with curls, oil painted blue eyes looking to the side, there is a white accent dot to the right of each pupil. She has single stroke painted brows, painted lashes above the eyes, red accent dots in the corner of her nostrils and closed mouth with two-tone lips. Rosy blush on her "near-perfect" little face. This doll has NO ears, there is a seam at this area that is on both sides of her head. My photo #5 shows the seam on the BACK of her head which has "pulled apart" and may need a few stitches. Inside this seam there a (small paper with writting of some sort), one of the words is "scritte"? I did not pry this area open to attempt to read more and possibly make matters worse, this word I could see in plain view. Doll has molded sewn fingers all together with individual thumb, my reference tells me these dolls had two different types of hands, one type of doll had two fingers sewn together while the other did not. I have shown photos of her body and legs. Body read more
