17 ½” An outstanding example of a “portrait face” Schmidt Bebe with fine bisque highlighted with mauve shadowing and rosy cheeks. The original set blue spiral paperweight eyes are enhanced by dark eyeliner and finely painted lashes. On a marked Schmidt body with nice original finish(aged repaint to lower arms only)with straight wrists. The rear of head is marked with the number “2” and underneath is the typical shield with SCH embossed within. Dressed in an elaborate silk Bebe outfit of newer vintage with coordinating hat antique leather boots and a blonde mohair wig. A very striking example of this mold! Bisque head appears to be free of any damage and/or issues such as cheek rubs, eye chips, etc.
