This auction is for a very old celluloid doll. I found a doll that had the same eyes as this doll and it had it's box and the box read "Petitcolin, France." She has such a distinctive face that she very well may be a French celluloid. She is 18" tall and is jointed at the neck, shoulders and hips. She has such a beautiful face!

I purchased her from an estate sale so do not know her history. Obviously, someone cut her hair at one time but she can easily be re-wigged. I'm not sure if the hair is mohair or human hair.

She is wearing white panties that don't look original. The elastic is also stretched out. Her shoes and socks
