    Description

    One of the rarest and
    most desirable
    , antique cloth boudoir bed dolls is this spectacular,
    fully labeled
    : Original/"
    KUDDLES" Toys/Reg. U.S. Pat. Off./By
    Jane Gray Company, Inc. New York City (American made)
    beauty! Label is sewn into the leg seam.  Measuring, 28" long, this
    "KUDDLES"
    charmer has a beautiful, thick blonde
    wig in curls,
    swivel neck
    ,
    large elongated, side-glancing, blue eyes
    with highlights and two shades of vivid mauve eyeshadow, spectacularly long eyelashes, eyebrows, rosy cheeks, two tiny beauty spots and distinctive
    heart-shaped mouth.
    Entirely made of cloth, she has long slender arms and legs with shaped hands with individually sewn fingers and feet and wears a homemade, black velveteen and printed silk, lounging costume with wide legged trousers and matching wide sleeves and very worn, black silk slippers (the outfit shows significant wear to the silk trim only). The trousers are taffeta and are in excellent condition. Her hair is very thick (none trimmed) and in two
    coiled braids on either side
    with (what we believe) is the back braid unraveled and needing restyling. Her vampy companion boudoir doll friends are
    not included and listed separately.
    She is in very good condition with no stains or fading no damages (slight wear at the tip of her nose) or repairs and no odors as she is from a smoke free home.
    What a
    delicious addition
    she will make to any boudoir doll collection!
