Vintage 1965 Ideal HONEY MOON Doll Dick Tracy Comics Nice condition great face

Description

When Ideal introduced Dick Tracy’s granddaughter to the market in 1965 the comic strip was losing readership so the doll didn’t sell as well as they had hoped. While not necessarily rare they are usually found heavily worn or near mint in box.
This Honey Moon Doll is not near mint but she has faired  well over the years even though she was played with.
The face paint looks bright and almost new. Her cotton yarn hair is in good condition, she comes with the original matching ribbons. There may be a few plugs missing in the back underneath. She has a faint yellow stain on one strand underneath in the back.
Her cloth body is in good condition , her body is a little floppy and there is at least one stain on the upper back that looks like it might be from the snap on her romper. The vinyl is fairly clean. I have read that these dolls had a cryer/squeaker in them , if she has one it does not work.
Her clothes are in nice shape with only 2 minor red marks in front on the dress. I do not know if they can be removed or not.
She has her original space collar , it is bent from years of improper storage.
The romper underneath has slight fraying to the unfinished neckline and armholes. The  elastic on the pant legs have stretched. H
er original booties are in nice shape as well.
She measures about 15” from the top of her head to her heels.
