Description

This is old cloth doll. The body is cloth, the arms are separate from the body and they are affixed with metal pin which I have included a picture of. The head seems to be made from paper mache. There is black hair affixed to the head, it appears to give the doll more lifelike feature but the pigtails actually seem to hide a crease on the sides of the head. The clothes appear to be original as they are old and seem to be handsewn. The only damage I see with the doll is on the back of the head, it appears that the back of the head was laid on something that pressed in on it. It didn't break through the head, there are no holes. I think if you took the head off or went from the bottom you could push it back out.
