17 INCH SCHOENHUT WOODEN DOLL - $400 - (Lewes, DE)
This beautiful seventeen inch Schoenhut doll will be a wonderful addition to any collection. This wooden doll has an original label on doll's back that shows patent date of 1912 and a second original label of a C in a circle on the back of the neck. The Schoenhut Company produced these dolls between 1911 and the 1920's. I don't know the exact style number of the doll. It has a very sweet face. This doll has the original medium brown color mohair wig which is glued to the doll's head. Eyes are painted and have a blue green tint to them. Doll is in excellent condition for age and there are no cracks or major rubbed places. It may have some paint touch up - see back of arm area - small paint run. There are 2 holes in base of each foot for a stand (not included). Doll was dressed in red, blue and green tartan plaid cotton overalls with a long sleeve white knit high neck back Velcro closed shirt. There is a pair of white cotton socks and black patent shoes and a white cotton hat that came with the doll when I obtained it. None are original to the doll that I can tell. The doll does have an original metal Schoenhut pin attached to front of the overalls (see picture). This doll would make an excellent addition to your doll collections.
