I'm offering today a rare and hard to find Uneeda doll from the 1950's era. Her head, body arms and legs are vinyl, but have an oil cloth body over the vinyl body. Very rare body configuration and the only one I've ever had like this one. Because her body is within the oil cloth she is very floppy and poses just the way you want her like a real baby. You can push on her tummy and she makes a squeak sound. She is absolutely adorable.
I will start at the top of her head and work my way down so as not to omit anything in my description. Starting at the top of her head, she has dark blond hair which is cut into a short baby cut which frames that adorable face. She is wearing a custom made hair band with white grosgrain ribbon decorated with pink/mint green ice cream cones. I designed this precious hair bow to match her adorable adorable onesie with pink full tutu. As you go down to her face, she has single brown line for eyebrows. She has beautiful blue stationary eyes which are accented with hand painted eyelashes. The eyelashes have been meticulously hand painted with delicate lines which are located in the corner of each eye. Oh so sweet and precious! She has a dainty little nose with open nostrils for realism which flows down to her rose bud shape lips. Her lips are painted pastel pink with open mouth. Her chubby baby cheeks have beautiful pink coloring. The back of her neck is hallmarked: "Uneeda Doll.
As most of you who follow me know, I pick their outfits based upon the way their faces look and what they speak to my heart. With this precious face, I knew she needed to be in pink. As I'm sure you can tell by my dolls, pink is my favorite color and with the beautiful coloring on this dolls face, she just had to be in something pink. I chose this adorable white onesie with pink kitty cats. The swoop neck is accented with a delicate pink satin bow. The sleeves are long which come down to the top of her wrists. The onesie has metal snaps in the crotch for easy removal. I chose this very full soft pink tulle tutu and decorated the front of it with a large pink satin ribbon bow. Under the full pink tutu, she is wearing gray cotton pants with delicate pink bow on the center of the waist. She is wearing expensive designer socks which are decorated with white polyester flower which is decorate with pink and white satin rosettes. Surrounding the flower are randomly placed aurora borealis crystals. I had these adorable pink booties knitted for her which match the pink tutu and precious outfit she is wearing.
My dolls are not played with by children who come and visit; I know that sounds mean, but sometimes they play too rough. My dolls are kept in a doll room specifically for them and are displayed for everyone to enjoy. All my dolls are truly loved and cared for as though they were my children. Their clothes are either original to the doll, made by me, or I've tried finding doll clothing from the same era as the doll or find clothing which match the personality of the doll. We do not smoke and I try very hard to keep a tidy clean home free of dust and odor. My dolls are clean and most of the time look as though they did when they were sold new. Depending on how old they are, I do try to be honest in detailing if some of the dolls have bruises, missing toes or fingers or other issues, but that doesn't mean they aren't worth having; for each one is like children.....they are all beautiful in their mothers eyes. If I've missed something it would never be intentional.
