Darling and popular 18” TOP KNOT Baby Dear doll, first issued in 1960, designed by Eloise Wilkins.
 
Gorgeous healthy glow to her lovely face with light blonde hair, a clean body with original stuffing  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 very light blonde hair and it is just lovely!
 
Not shown: but will come with a nice copy of her Baby Dear wrist tag.
 
Heart bottle holder sold SEPARATELY and not included with this purchase
 
EXTRAS include:
🌸copy of Baby Dear's book that tells her 'story'
🌸Newly made soft white cotton knit bonnet to compliment her layette
🌸Original pink Baby Dear blanket
 
This happy baby is in excellent condition — fat and sassy, she sits up comfortably and poses ‘oh so many ways’. She comes ALL ORIGINAL with her original outfit -- rosebud cotton jersey kimono, white cotton 'side-tie' undershirt, and fluffy white flannel diaper with 'star dot' snaps. She wears pink-and-crochet booties to keep her little chubby feet cozy and warm. She has a repro hang tag exactly like her original. All clothing in excellent condition.
 
 
She is absolutely delightful and being a 'top knot' baby, she is among the relatively few of this issue -- hard to find in such perfect condition -- no marks, or chews to her sweet, chubby arms and legs. Her cloth stuffed body is squeezably soft and cuddly with just enough 'drape' to her neck to remind you she is a 'new baby' and needs you to comfort and support her. She is marked with her cloth Vogue tag at the nape of her neck; and, she is appropriately stamped at the back of her leg 'E. Wilkins / 1960' to attest to her authenticity.
 
Whether this is your first Vogue Baby Dear, or one you have been seeking to add to your nursery collection, you will find her irresistible -- LOVE her, pick her up, dress her and cuddle her -- she will take you back to simpler times and you will feel like a little girl again. 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.
