This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 3/11/2020
The two largest, 19" and 16", are so-called "Millener's Models", the taller with center part, exposed ears, with long curls in braids wrapping around under the ears and forming a bun in back. The slightly shorter doll has a center part, hair drawn back slightly covering the ears, and arranged in a tight bun in back, leading back of neck exposed. Both of these dolls are on the narrow waist leather bodies with wooden spoon hands and legs with flat feet and painted shoes and socks. The last and slightly smaller doll, 15", is a French-type "Pauline" with painted black hair and painted facial features on an all leather body. She is dressed as a street peddler and carries her wares, some of which are antique and others not as old as the doll. CONDITION: Both of the so-called Millener's Models have some crazing, especially on the shoulders, however the faces are in relatively good shape with no signs of repair or repaint. Both bodies have some patching, especially the larger one, but they are well done and covered by the clothes. The Pauline is also in very good condition with some typical age wear.
Condition: (Very Good).
Item Dimensions: Largest: 19 - 1/2" x 5 - 1/2" x 4 - 1/2".
