20" ABG c1910 German CHARACTER BABY #1367 Compo Body
In near mint condition, with a perfect bisque head on the original composition baby body, Alt, Beck & Gottschalk's Character Baby is simply charming. The head is incised "ABG // 1367/50 // Made in Germany", and the body is stamped "Made in Germany". Big blue spiral glass sleep eyes retain most of the original hair lashes while painted lashes encircle the eyes under flyaway brows. Plump blushed cheeks bracket Baby's smiling open mouth, with two pearly teeth and treble tongue inside. The original auburn mohair wig is very full. Her body is jointed at neck, shoulders and hips, and retains the beautiful original finish except for the right leg, which appears to have touched-up paint. Baby is dressed for a party in a silky ecru dress lavishly embellished with antique lace and moiré ribbons; a matching bonnet frames her face. A vintage full slip, antique poufy pantalets with ruffled eyelet hems and knit booties of the finest wool complete her clothing. This sweet baby would be equally perfect in a highchair or buggy!!
