This most charming BABY EVELYN is a rare and highly sought after doll... 

 

She is very hard to find and this little one is in nice condition dressed in an appropriate same-vintage outfit.

 

She is a perfectly-sized baby at 17" but big enough to easily tug at your heartstrings with her beautiful bown eyes and soft countenance. BABY Evelyn is marked on the nape of her neck, "Effanbee / Baby Evelyn." Her 5-part composition head and body retain all original paint -- down to her fingers and little toes -- paint is smooth and has NO CRAZING; ... a fine example of Baby Evelyn.

 

Her firmly stuffed oilcloth body is the only sign of her age, with expected wear as the oilcloth aged -- sturdy and completely intact. She has 'warm dark brown' molded curls covering her little baby head, with just a couple of paint rubs to lend character and age to such a wonderfully preserved dolly. She has brown glassene eyes with with human hair lashes and her vivid painted features show no wear at all and light up her face.

 

My photographs illustrate her valued condition well.

 

Baby Evelyn comes dressed in a replaced vintage outfit -- white cotton batiste 'baby style' dress, cotton bloomers and slip, original socks (all that was left when she came to me), and a peachy pink silk taffeta coat with matching bonnet. The coat set looked so lovely on her, that in spite of the washed out spot on the front edge of her coat where it closes at the bottom, I've added it anyway... you can see that it can be well hidden when displayed... as you can see, Baby Evelyn displays well!

 

All you see photographed comes home to you with this most darling BABY EVELYN... PERFECT GIFT!

 

She will LIGHT UP your NURSERY with the sparkle in her eyes... so enjoy!
