***5 DAY sale***This sale is for a nude, vintage Cissy doll, jointed at the neck, arms, elbows, legs and knees; marked Alexander at the back of the head. I\'m selling this doll for a friend.This oneis not for the mint collector, and is in played-with condition. Shemay have been a Queen based on the way the hair is rooted and the color ofthe hair. It is the infused, later Cissy. I took the photos outside, which makes the doll\'s skintone lighter. She looks more tan than appears in photos. The bar fell out of her hair, so I have that in a plastic bag and will include it with the doll. The doll\'s neck has been restrung with a professional doll restringing rubber band and is now tight.
Good points:
Clear blue/hazel eyes, no yellowing or discoloration
High color blush, looks original; blush on hands and knees
All eyelashes; smokeyeye shadow
No splits or cracks on body that I can see and I looked up into the tops of legs at the hip
Flaws:
Hair needs to be redone and is loose from the original set (I have the bar and will include it with the doll)
Glue at ears--mostly on the right ear, but also on left ear; I don\'t know if this can been seen in the photos
Earring must have broken off, and the earring post is in the ears (glued) and does not come out. I don\'t know what type of glue the person used, but it doesn\'t wipe off with soap and water (not craft glue).
There is some glue residue from factory glue at hairline in back of head on left side
Left wrist has a residue that does not wash off (possibly glue)
This may not be a flaw, but eyelids are lighter (see photo) and some gray spotting seen through the eyelid paint
Body has light wear stains and spots; also some residue down the doll\'s back to the rear end
I\'m being very picky, but want to point out a vertical mark near the right knee, almost like a pencil mark, but not a crack
Cissy issold as is. I have tried to describe to the best of my ability. I do not intentionally hide flaws. Please look at the photos and use your judgement, because I may have missed something.
This will be shipped Priority Mail with tracking and Insurance.
