24" Thomas Jefferson Doll Wax over Polyform Artist Faith Wick 1976 NIADA RARE - $800 - (Hurricane, UT)
I am liquidating part of my grandmothers estate. She was an expert doll collector and restorer for 60 plus years. 24" Thomas Jefferson Doll, by artist Faith Wick, 1976. Shoulder head and hands are wax over Polyform. Painted and sculpted very detailed face and hands. Red human (I think) hair. Cloth body, arms, feet and legs. The arms and legs have a wire in them so they hold a pose. Clothes - Period clothes with velvet pants, a felt 3 point hat and leather shoes. Clothes are handmade and original to the doll. Condition - Excellent - No cracks or chips. Very nice face paint and no damage. Mark - His clothes are sewn on so I can't see if there is a mark at the base of his shoulderplate. Please see the photos, they are part of the description. This doll is an original made by NIADA artist Faith Wick. According to the NIADA website, only work made by members of NIADA during their membership is considered a NIADA doll. Inventory card for this doll reads - Thomas Jefferson by Faith Wick, 1976. Purchased 1978. There is a NiADA card with this doll. Signed by the doll artist. See last picture for the card. It is my understanding that NiADA registered dolls are one of a kind original works. Stand is not included. This doll is sold "As Is". PLEASE NOTE: On all my dolls listings, my grandmother was the doll expert, I am NOT. I describe the dolls to the best of my ability, but I might miss something that is important to a doll collector. Please ask ALL questions before bidding. I will answer all questions and send additional pictures if requested. I need to stress that ALL questions need to be asked before bidding. SHIPPING - Parcel Post with delivery confirmation or UPS.
