Hi!
I was hoping to find some information on my Kewpie doll. My Mom has had it since she was a little girl and gave it to me when I was born (I'm 38 now). We don't know anything about it, but it's 18" and plastic with jointed limbs. I've never seen another like it. I was also hoping to get some information on care - she's pretty dirty and I'd love to clean her up, but I don't want to ruin her either. Thanks!

Cameo interchanged the vinyl Kewpie head with the Miss Peep body. This is one of those dolls, the hinge joints generally have an "S71" along w/the rest of the mold # and name information on the neck of the doll. Very nice don't see to often .

Neat, thanks for the info!
You can wipe her off just don't do eyes and mouth and rub paint off . A mild soap and damp cloth rinse with clean cloth and dry her . She is made of Vinyl .
