Her
walking mechanism was taken apart by Dr. Hubby and works
perfectly like a dream as she floats along so easily. Her head turns when she takes each step. Her
body has been sanded to bring out the soft look to the
plastic. No repairs were needed on this dolls body.
No seam splits or cracks. Her body looks new.
Her
light blue eyes have been polished on our machine. She has
the long white stemmed eye mechanism that is truly the best
IDEAL ever made. The eyes move back and forth with
ease. This is why I date her as a doll made in or around
1952. Her lashes are full. Her eyebrows are
are great and her lower lashes are great. Her eyes flirt from side to
side. We have installed our own platform inventions inside
her head to prevent rolling, sinking, and crossing of the eyes.
Her
make-up is original. D. Hubby blushed her hands and knees and
sealed them with several coats of sealer.
I
am quite proud of her hair which has a dark gray cast to
it. Pretty color. When we received her, the hair
was saran and was supposed to be in braids, however, the hair
had been cut very short and there was no way to salvage it. So
we used a replacement wig and styled it into the style she once
was sold with. This is the closest to a Saucy Walker
doll's hair style possible without being saran.
Her
little SW Replica very soft dress is special because Lois Pearson, our famous
seamstress online has made it for this doll. She also made the
replica ONESIE that matches the attached cotton slip on the
dress as IDEAL did on their Saucy Walker Dolls. We added the new
and very soft "GUND" duck for her to love and play
with. One photo above makes it look like the lil duck has
a smudge on it's face. It does not have anything on it, it
is a shadow.
Her
"Burnt Orange" (looks red in the photos but it is not
red.) Double Sided satin ribbon for her hair and sash was sent to us from the UK which we had
special ordered for this doll. Lois made a sash for her
dress out of the same print as the dress. We will include
that in the sale as well. All bows have been stiffened to
last a very long time in display.
Her
vinyl vintage shoes with molded bows are made by IDEAL and her socks are replacement from
Spain.
The
Fruit Doll Is A Prop and not for sale.
Her
Kaiser Doll stand is included along with her replica hang tag.
Whomever it is to take her home will see that she is an adorable
doll and needs to be loved and cherished.
Thank
you so much for your interest.
