RARE Vintage Madame Alexander Elise Sleeping Beauty Variation

Description

Intriguingly RARE Sleeping Beauty variation!  This gorgeous Sleeping Beauty is wearing her original gown.  Her blonde hair is crowned with a headdress band across and
behind
her hair.  She is likely a prototype for the more common Madame Alexander Sleeping Beauty dolls.
The more common Sleeping Beauty Elise doll was only
offered
for one year in 1959.  She was only sold at Disneyland.
The doll herself is in very good vintage condition.  Her face
still retains it's vibrancy, with blue, blue eyes, and original blush.  This dolls face is original and has had no retouches.  Her dress has turned from blue to pink as has happened a lot with this original taffeta fabric made for these Sleeping Beauty dolls.
There are two tears in the fabric on the dress.  Please see photos.
Please do your homework as I have never in the many years I have been collecting, I have never seen another like her.
If you like Rare, she is a must for the experienced Madame Alexander doll collector!
