Darling and popular 18” Baby Dear doll, first issued in 1960, designed by Eloise Wilkins.
 
Unrestored baby in excellent super clean condition with working 'burp' squeaker inside.
 
Gorgeous healthy glow to her lovely face with blonde hair with light red highlights, an immaculately clean body, and even-toned vinyl limbs . If you have ever tried to photograph and ‘capture’ the true color of a Baby Dear’s hair, you know it depends on the lighting and angle; this baby has pretty light reddish blonde hair… much like the baby in the 'Baby Dear' book by Eloise Wilkins.
 
This happy baby is  fat and sassy, she sits up comfortably and poses ‘oh so many ways’.
 
She comes dressed in a lovely layette:
 
Vintage white cotton smocked baby gown
White crochet booties
Newly made pink replica of a Baby Dear diaper with added lace and MATCHING top and bonnet
 Beautiful vintage, white cotton day gown with newly made smocked bonnet -- darling embroidered rosebuds are featured on the bonnet, and the dress buttons up the front.
Newly made Dr Denton style rose print pajamas with frilly lace at the waist
Brand new pink baby blanket with net lace trim
Vintage 1950s Bunny rattle toy
 
All outfits in excellent, clean and pressed MINT condition -- ready for play and display... although she prefers to be cuddled.
 
If you are like me, you will love to hold this little infant and care for her as if she were a 'real baby'. If you collect them, you know they are much like potato chips, and cannot be resisted or denied. Dress them often, as they look charming and enjoy being fussed over."
