Maria
Elena
Standard
W-K-S
Small Head: (10.5")
Vintage Boudoir Bed Doll
"Maria Ellena"
may appear to be an "anita" type for her sweet look and smaller size but she
is actually marked W-K-S Inc. making her one of the earlier dolls dating
late 1920's early 1930's. She measures approx. 27". She has composition breastplate head and hands. Her face paint is very nice but there is some
what I believe to be factory flaws here and there. The cloth body does
have some surface dirt but has been mended and patched as you will see in
the photos below. It is stuffed with
dark cotton. Her lovely dress is very well made from an original pattern of
the time (but not by me) and features a stand up collar. Crinoline &
pantaloons
were added for a finished ensemble.
She does wear
stockings and has new leather shoes. Her hair is very soft black mohair, covers the head
with some sparse areas & appears to be original. She has vintage flowers in her hair.
