Gorgeous early 1950s Tiny Tears baby doll by American Character is the smallest size made standing just 11" high. She is the first issue Tiny Tears with the "Pat Pend" mark on the nape of her neck.
 
This lovely and most highly sought after size Tiny Tears comes to you in her "Miss Frances Ding Dong School" retail shoebox.
 
The little box holds Tiny and her original accessories: rare MINT bubble pipe; pink rubber pacifier that has been repaired but still very nice to have; Palmolive soap; glass nursing bottle; white diaper; and Tiny Tears pamphlet addressed to herself. I have added a little rattle to her display.
 
She comes dressed simply in her ADORABLE original pajamas made of soft flannel in a whimsical print. Underneath are her white cotton knit 'big girl panties" and matching single-button undershirt.
 
 
Baby Tiny Tears has a her original hands down rubber body with NO CRAZING, no cracks, no creases, no problems. You will note that it is a darker color than the later issue Tiny Tears dolls, as this is the original and first rubber used on these dolls... over the years the rubber was a lighter and pink color compared to these softer and darker ones. She has a high color face with NO FLAWS. There are no rubs to the paint. Her brown molded curls are near perfect. She has lovely clear blue eyes with full and even brush lashes; they open and close perfectly. These early eyes are made of metal, where the later issues were plastic; this gives them clear, bright whites and sparkling eyes.
 
Very very hard to find this issue Tiny Tears in such amazing condition.
