This Alexander-kins straight leg walker doll was probably never played with. Here is an example of our favorite type of Wend-kins outfits. She is so adorable in her 1955 School Dress (tag missing), #444 pictured in Patricia Smiths World of Alexander-kins published 1985, on page 44.Not only at the waist, but also much amplified at the hem. The Kelly green dress with ric rac at the neck & matching panties are of sturdy cotton, with square snaps of course. Her rich auburn triple-stitched wig in a curly flip-style with bangs is shiny & perfect, as are the painted features & color of her face. The eyes appear very dark deep Navy blue until turned sideways in a bright lightthen you can see a pale blue iris.
Her green straw hat has a pink ribbon & bow to match the dress. The rayon sox & white velveteen snap-over shoes complete the original ensemble. There are no scratches, stains, splits, nor cracks on the well-strung mint body that is marked "ALEX" on back, which includes a working walker mechanism. Her head turns freely when the legs move. The clothes are all original & excellent, with one minor addition of newer elastic thread hand stitched around the panties original stretched waist band.
It can easily be removed if desired, but is actually invisible from outside. She is a lovely example of a well preserved & beloved Wendy doll.
