    Bought her today. She has some issues, pretty bad cracking on the top of her head and a piece missing. She says "F.I.H. Co Inc" on the back of her neck, and when you lay her down her eyes close. I hear a noise when I lay her down, don't know if her eyes are creaking or if she was supposed to make a sound. Made of composition, about 20 inches tall.

      Your doll has had some re painting for sure lips and maybe more hard to see on photo how much works was done but she is still beautiful .

      From the looks of her, it appears its just the lips and teeth. Rest looks like original paint
    5. Manikin Manikin, 7 years ago
      could be some on eyebrows also . But she has maintained her value :-) The cracking on top of head will not take away much from her as she can be fixed and collectors love "Baby Dimples "

      Very cool. I guess all that really matters is I love her....what my husband doesn't know won't kill him LOL
    7. Manikin Manikin, 7 years ago
      LOL never tell husbands it is a pack between us girls :-) This one is solved and you got a beautiful gift for yourself too .
    8. jlennongrrl jlennongrrl, 7 years ago
      Very true, Manikin. The way I see it, he spent a TON of money on paintball stuff...this wasn't a lot. Thanks for solving for me!
    9. Manikin Manikin, 7 years ago
