RARE 1930s 14 Composite Madame Alexander SCARLETT DOLL & 31 Pc Original Clothes
RARE 1930s 14 Composite Madame Alexander SCARLETT DOLL & 31 Pc Original Clothes. For sale is this AMAZING estate find! It just doesn't get much better than this! She gently loved it, and someone who loved her made a TON of amazing high quality clothing for Scarlett. When she outgrew her dolly, she was lovingly packed away in her large doll trunk with all of her clothes, and there she slumbered for more than 70 years! Because of being safe in her trunk she was shielded from the elements and is in fantastic shape, as are most of the clothes. She is as found, except I did bring her to a professional Doll Dr.
She said that she was in the best condition for a Scarlett that she had seen in over 30 years in business! I have tons of pictures, and will detail any flaws and relevant details below. Scroll Down for Photos Doll: Scarlett is a 14 composite doll, and she is correctly marked on the back of her head. She has her original hairstyle (I believe that this is made of real human hair), complete with little gold colored pins. She comes with her original tagged Madame Alexander outfit, which includes one of the rarer dresses, with a built in hoop skirt, a straw hat with fabric flowers on it, pantaloons, silk socks, and black shoes.
I have lots of pictures of her body, but here is what I have noticed. Overall she has very little crazing for a composite doll her age. Most of her body is remarkably smooth with the original paint even her knees have a faint flush color to them to make them look more real! There is some faint crazing to her face, most notably down her nose. There is also a line down the back of one of her arms, and an area where the arm joint meets the body that has the slightest of chipping. There is one tiny area of paint loss on one finger, and a couple of areas where the clothing has rubbed on her chest and the color is a little lighter. She does have two hairline cracks under her wig on the head (you can't see them unless you pull the wig up). There is a little paint transfer from her lips to her chin, and one line that looks like pen on her forehead (not a crack). Her eyes are AMAZING- bright and crystal green like they were put in yesterday (I speculate that the trunk was on its side and her eyes were closed all these years). She has most of her original eyelashes with one small area missing on the left eye. Clothing: There are a total of 31 pieces of original 1930s clothing included.A few are pretty simple, but most are really expertly done with the highest quality material (antique lace, silks, satin, handmade satin flowers, with pieces lined in matching materials). Items are in excellent condition unless otherwise noted. I have cataloged the clothing below: 1. Original tagged Madame Alexander Dress.
