The vast majority of the items have been in my home for many years, some up to 30. Some were purchases along the way, and on eBay in the last 10 years or so.
* I am sorry that I am not able to describe these items in better detail, my grandmother knew this stuff backward and forwards but unfortunately she is no longer with us.
* Nothing I have is a museum piece, these were just collected through the years from all over the place, mostly doll shows and doll shops in Texas.
* Most of these items are from a collection that spanned 50 years, many of these dolls may have been touched up, repainted, repaired, etc. Some I can tell and some I just don't know.
* I am no expert on the
originality
of clothes, hair, accessories etc. Please looks at the pictures and go from there.
* Items are from a non-smoking home.
* I will combine shipping in most cases (as long as the auctions end in the same few days), just wait for the auctions to end and contact me.
* I have sold stuff on and off for over 20 years on Ebay, under this same name. If there is a problem please contact me and I will try to work it out. This is not something I am doing just to make a quick buck.
* Shipping can be expensive, please keep in mind that the actual cost paid to the post office is not the true cost, eBay includes that amount when I am charged fees which is around 13%, If you win an auction and you get your item and you feel your were unfairly charged then contact me about a refund. I loose money on shipping at times, it just comes with the territory.
* I have a very large collection and I intend to list a lot of items in the near future. I have way more items than I can probably ever list.
1938 Vintage 25" IDEAL Deanna Durbin Composition Doll - Tagged w Button
Deanna is marked "IDEAL DOLL 25" on her back. Her button reads, "She's a Doll - Deanna Durbin." Her dress tag reads, "Genuine Deanna Durbin Doll." (I do not know if she is marked on the back of head because the wig is tightly glued down.)
She wears the classic long floral dress with puffed sleeves. Previous owner has stuffed her puffed sleeves to keep the puffed. The dress has a hole at the back waist seam line. She has wears her original lace trimmed slip which is attached in the back with a safety pin. She has nylon like undies, rayon socks and goldish toned front snaps shoes. I think the shoes may be replacements (not sure).
She has her red ribbons in her human hair wig. She also has full upper eyelashes and 6 teeth in her smiley friendly face. Her wig shows what might be some white glue residue in some area around her face... that's my guess.
She can pose and stand without a doll stand. Her composition has some crazing (see images) and a small place at the top of her neck inside the head cavity where some paint is gone which I forgot to photograph (ask me and I'll send a picture.). Her torso has some type of tape or sticker residue on the front of her chest which I didn't try to rub off. Please examine the photos carefully and ask if you need to see something better.
It looks like she's had some loving restoration as one leg is a replacement which you can see from the paint color is lighter one one leg and she has nice strong new cording inside.
I have photographed her just as I found her. Her history of repair or past environments is unknown.
I haven't noticed any offensive odors.
My home is smoke free, but I do not know the doll's previous home environment. She has been in my home for a brief stay only.
** Item is NOT mint but shows evidence of being loved. I have tried to photograph her from all sides with her wardrobe and without. I'm only allowed 12 photos on Ebay.
If you need more photos, ASK.
I have mentioned flaws that I have noticed but I'm not an expert so there may be others. Ask questions about what's important to you that I did not show in photos or mention in the description. I will answer if I can. I don't guarantee that I will know but I try.

Doll is packaged very carefully. She is wrapped in tissue paper before and then bubble wrap. Bubble wrap will be lightly sealed with scotch tape so that you do NOT have to use scissors to unwrap the doll. I then use packing peanuts around the doll to cushion her within the box.

"in care of" type of labels using
C/O or CO). If a name appears on the address different than the name of the buyer, I may cancel the order.
