1953 MA Madame Alexander Alexanderkin WENDY KIN DOLL in Country Picnic (2159)

Description

This is our special 1953 Madame Alexander-kin Wendy Kin Heavy Strung Doll that wears the rare and stunning Tagged County Picnic Outfit. She is the heavier weight doll with the face that is more full around the cheeks. She is marked ALEX on her back and has pretty triple-stitched blonde hair with lots of curls. We prefer not to undress her and have removed her from a personal storage case where we have kept her with notes. She is strung and can stand well with her arms loose. Her body, arms and legs have some marks and discoloration on them. She has a really pretty face with blue eyes that open and close nicely and lightly blushed cheeks.
She is wearing a tagged County Picnic outfit that includes the beautiful pink check long gown that has satin straps and the off white jacket that goes over it and ties with ribbon through two white painted metal grommets on the front. The dress is in nice, clean condition, closing with square snaps. There is only one dot mark on the inside skirt near lower hem. There is a little wrinkling on back side of gown because of keeping her stored flat. The jacket has some light brown discoloration to it and there are some scratches on the white paint of the grommets. Her straw hat is in very nice condition with pretty flowers on it (chin strap was replaced). Her organdy slip and pantalettes are original to the outfit and are in nice condition but have a lot of discoloration at the waistlines and have been stitched to keep them up at some point (photos 9+10). She wears the earlier fuzzy black side snap shoes with fuzzy bottoms and more current white socks. Shoes are in good condition with wear on bottoms. She is really a very special Kin that has been cherished.
Please do not hesitate to ask for any additional photos or closeups as we are parting with a family collection and want to make sure that you know as much as possible about her before purchasing her.  We took numerous photos so, again, please do not hesitate to ask.  We hope to find her a wonderful new home.
