8" RARE Alexander BKW FAITH AMERICANA #486-1961
Bent-knee walker "Faith Americana" is from a rare four-doll series made only in 1961. She is in excellent condition and has never been played-with or undressed. Walker mechanism works perfectly. Tagged "Americana”, she has fluttery blue sleep eyes, molded upper lashes, hand painted brows and lower lashes, rosy cheeks and dainty bow mouth to enhance her bisque-like finish. The tosca wig is in the original curly bob-style with a curl at each temple and a curly topknot. Faith's dress has a below-the-knee box-pleated skirt in a softer plaid which is correct for this doll other Alexanders used the brighter color plaid in Alexander-kin clothing – it is not faded. The bodice has a jumper effect with cap sleeves over attached batiste bodice and half-sleeves edged in dainty lace and black braid. Two tiny buttons grace the bodice. The fine navy straw bonnet has a big red satin bow in front and band around the crown; elastic chinstrap is loose but hidden by her hair. Crochet-lace hemmed heavy cotton petticoat with red ribbon beading, lace-hemmed fine cotton pantalets, black suede-cloth side-snap shoes and red cotton knit stockings complete the outfit: charming girl!! Please see our web page for her two sisters!
Just beautiful from a non smoking home
