A Doll of Destiny
This is actually Queen Isabella........a factory error......she is wearing a tagged dress that states she is Queen Elizabeth I.
I have my own full set of these dolls........which can be seen on our site......which verifies this error.
Circa 1953 All hard plastic. Approximately 11" tall.
Original clothing. Sleep eyes ....molded lashes.
Jointed arms. Walker. She has all of her fingers.
The black flocking on dress is rubbing off.
Skirt needs a stitch or two on back closure seam.
Displays nicely. Pale complexion.
I undressed her to check for breaks and found glue residue at shoulders.........arm opening......but don't even know why it is there.
Slip and pantaloons need refreshing...........overall beige stains on undergarments.

For many years I have been hoarding vintage, antique trims just in case I ever found time to make doll clothes.
Since I don't even sew......think it is time to let them go. Purchased at estate and yard sales.
These trims perfect for doll clothes the 40's and 50's. I had Toni in mind when I bought them.
Yards and yards...................love the duck trim.
