This 24 inch (61cm.) bisque head doll is impressed to back of the head " 192 ", which is the mold number for J.D. Kestner. The head has no chips, cracks or hairlines and has the original wig, which has some loss but is still in acceptable condition. The pierced ears have no earrings. The lovely blue glass sleep eyes work perfectly, but have some chipping to the lid wax. Nostrils and inner eye sockets have red accent dots. The open mouth has four upper teeth, but one is loose so will need attention. The composition torso has a few patches of surface paint loss and some fine surface paint cracks to the right side of the chest. The ball-jointed arms are good but have surface paint loss. This also applies to the hands which have all fingers intact with red line markings. The legs and feet have surface paint loss with a break to the left big toe. Toes have red line markings. The pretty dress has two layers with some stains to the lower edge of the under layer. The bonnet matches the dress, as do the shoes. Underwear consists of a muslin shift and cotton petticoat, both clean but with age-related wear. Buyer to pay postage. Paypal only accepted from overseas bidders. U.K. buyers payment by cheque or Paypal
