Effanbee 1930s Rare 13" Dy-Dee Kin Baby Doll with darling original layette.
 
This baby is the hard to find 13" Dy-Dee Kin; she was made only one year -- 1937 -- making her survival rate among the family of various sized Dy-Dee dolls produced extremely rare.
 
She has sweet, precious qualities and, as with all Effanbee dolls to quote their famous marketing line -- are dolls that "Will Steal Your Heart."
 
I have never ever seen an intact original body for Dy-Dee Kin. I can only surmise the formula used for the rubber bodies that year was different than years before or after. SUPER RARE DOLL. I have 'resurrected' Baby Dy-Dee Kin! She now has a replaced rubber body, where her original one was misshapen and hardened, and one leg was detached. Her 'newer vintage' rubber body is no longer soft; it does have light coloring and only one very small separation at the inner left thigh...otherwise perfect. it is a lovely light and even color. She is now able to function 'like a real girl (baby)' once again -- drink, wet (surely, not recommended but nice to know you could), stand, sit, pose for you, and best of all... you can dress her (use some care, after all, she is a tiny baby) and enjoy her as a Rare part of the Effanbee Dy-Dee dolls' rich history... hopefully have a lot of fun, too.
 
Dy-Dee Kin's face is perfection, with no blemishes, rubs or marks. Gorgeous coloring and all painted features are intact and well-defined, along with a healthy glow to her blushed cheeks -- all natural paint with no touch ups or restorations there. She has her original blue litho eyes with most of her natural brush lashes.
