RARE --1930's Effanbee Lambkins 16" Composition Doll

Description

It's a pleasure to list a Lambkin... the MARVELOUS WONDER DOLL by Effanbee. This is the 16" LAMBKIN / LAMKIN from 1930 -- darling baby doll is in amazing condition -- one of the nicest I have seen. She comes to you in her white cotton batiste gown, slip and booties.
LAMBKINS is appropriately marked on the back of her neck, as spelled with a 'b', where her presentation box (not included with this doll) interestingly spelled her name without the 'b' as LAMKIN and without the 's' as well. She has 5-part composition limbs and head with a softly stuffed body that drapes and shapes to an infant's needs to fully express herself! She is SOFT, SOFT and SOFT... a very CUDDLY body. She has a non-working crier inside.
FACT ALERT: DID YOU KNOW... many collector's are unaware of her unusual feature -- a unique mechanism allows the doll mother to place Lambkin on her right side with HER EYES OPEN !! Lambkins can be placed in various natural positions.
...Perfect MOTHER'S DAY GIFT!
Her BLUE tin litho eyes are CLEAR and BEAUTIFUL! Her painted lashes and brows are present (RARE to find them present at all as they are usually completely rubbed off).
Her gorgeous plump hands, feet and legs are simply adorable. NOTE she has the RARE celluloid finger nails (and toenails, too!) -- this a feature Effanbee used on very special dolls in its line, NOTE her darling "gold' ring on her left hand. Absolutely amazing doll to find after more than 70 years!
Her arm connectors work smoothly so you can raise and lower her arms in different positions; her head turns completely as well -- all adding nicely to her ability to pose and highlight her adorable features -- this baby has a LOT of CHARM and PERSONALITY and as the Effanbee slogan promises -- she is a doll to STEAL YOUR HEART.
