This baby is a brown molded hair near 20" Effanbee Dy-Dee LOUISE from the late 1930's to early 1940's in the Mold 2 --she is just as cute as can be -- this BIGGEST and most adorable Effanbee Dy-Dee Lou / Dy-Dee Louise. She has a beautiful molded hair head and HIGH COLOR rosy cheeks -- a lovely find.
ALL ORIGINAL doll has NO restoration or repaint -- Gorgeous original high color with a FLAWLESS face.
The 20" Dy-Dee dolls are the HARDEST to find of all the Dy-Dee dolls issued, and when you do find one it is often times in poor shape... this lovely baby girl has a gorgeous head and excellent rubber body and comes with her pretty layette as shown... nice opportunity to pick one up... and MY favorite size and issue of the Dy-Dee dolls because she is almost like a REAL BABY in looks, feel and function.
For those of you who are new to Dy-Dee, she is a marvelous WONDER DOLL. She can drink and wet like many baby dolls, but when she wets the special valve system inside allows the moisture to leak out slowly from her backside opening -- just like a real baby. She is VERY HEAVILY weighted to feel like a real baby in your arms, too. Another unique feature is that you can turn her head to the side with her eyes open, and when you go to lay her down her eyes stay open. Alternatively, you can close her eyes and turn her head to keep them closed even when she is held upright. She can BLOW BUBBLES and loves to be bathed. Her special jointed system prevents water from getting inside her when bathing -- just an all-around AMAZING doll. Any little girl would be happy with a Dy-Dee of her own, how about you?
Dy-Dee has a gorgeous head and body... nothing like the 'squeaky' sound a Dy-Dee doll's rubber joints emit when moved. She poses well -- her rubber is in excellent condition -- she has been cleaned and has even skin tone -- still firm and strong with little to no crazing.
Her beautiful baby head... Her face is just lovely -- absolutely GORGEOUS, with an open nurser mouth; well defined painted brows and under lashes; and a rosy complexion. BEAUTIFUL and nearly perfect rubber inset EARS! AUBURN molded hair has little to no wear... but for a line in the paint at the back of her head. She has lovely brown eyes, and they open and close perfectly -- beautiful brush lashes are all there, thick, full and even.
Dy-Dee comes dressed in her gorgeous pink nylon organdy baby dress, slip, and bonnet which have been made with vintage materials from a 1940s Dy-Dee pattern, and vintage 1940s organdy bib with embroidered flowers sprinkled across the pure white background. I have added a DARLING "SWEET" baby pink, mommy made flannel coat and bonnet to keep her warm this Fall and Winter. To complete her layette she has a pink roses themed flannel diaper; a pair of white rubber pants; and a lovely pair of new old-store-stock pink rayon socks.
This Little Princess comes home with her own 'Princess' phone and a pair of 'Guardian Angel' diaper pins.
All clothing in excellent condition -- GREAT doll and her clothing, ready to come home and begin her new life.
