Vintage 1956 Madame Alexander Cissy HTF Sun Dress From FAO Schwartz Trunk Set

Most of the original items were in the trunk, including this harder to find “Bittersweet” sun dress. The dress is tagged and closes with 3 buttons in back. Note that the 3 buttons are a variation of the more commonly found 5 buttons. CONDITION: The dress appears to have been well taken care of by the original owner. The bottom button has been replaced. The dress is in nice condition overall, though does have some wrinkling from storage and maybe just a bit of light soil around the arm openings. Cleaning may be necessary or desired. Doll and shoes were used for display purposes only and are not included. A slip was used to give the dress that 50′s “fullness” and the slip is also not included. This listing is for the dress only. The vintage toys/items/dolls/clothes that I sell are NOT for children. They are for adult collectors only. Please remember that the majority of items that I sell are OLD… Some are VERY old. Unless “perfect” or “mint” is stated in the description, neither is implied and should not be expected. Unless otherwise noted in the description, all items are USED. Descriptions are based on my observations. What is important to you may be something that I do not have the knowledge to look for let alone see, so please feel free to ask questions before purchasing an item. We are a smoke-free building. We are NOT pet free. A dog and cats share our space. ODORS: Although we are smoke-free, the majority of the items that I sell were bought at estate sales or places other than a retail store and may have odors associated with those places. I try very hard to air out all items before listing them. If I detect an odor, I will state that in the listing, but my nose will not always be able to detect all odors. I must receive each item back in the same condition it was in when I sent it. Therefore all return packages must also originate from WITHIN the Unites States.

Vintage 1930s 13 Swivel Waist Composition Alexander Sonja Henie Doll in Tagged Feather Costume. Here is a sweet Nineteen-thirties Madame Alexander Sonja Henie doll made in the image of the outstanding athlete. This composition doll is in very nice condition – having a tagged costume, all her fingers, light blushing and a lovely human hair wig. Sonja Henie was a Norwegian born. Three-time Olympic Champion (1928, 1932, 1936). In Ladies’ Singles, a ten-time World Champion. (19271936) and a six-time European Champion. Henie won more Olympic and World titles than any other ladies’ figure skater. At the height of her acting career, she was one of the highest-paid stars in Hollywood. And starred in a series of box-office hits. If you want to be amazed, watch a YouTube video of Sonja doing spins on the ice – it seems like she can spin forever! She is 13 tall, all composition and marked Wendy Ann on her back. She is strung moderately tight so she can hold a pose but does better on a stand. She has working, clear, brown sleep eyes with thick lashes, nice painted lower lashes, single stroke eyebrows, light grey eye shadow and lightly blushed cheeks and body. She is jointed at the neck, shoulders, waist and hips. She is wearing a tagged grey sateen skating dress trimmed in replaced real feathers, matching grey/blue sateen panties and original MA ice skates. Good, lightly played with condition. Has clear, working sleep eyes with all brush lashes. Nicely painted facial features. Open mouth with six upper teeth. Missing a few dots of lip paint. Wig is thick, human hair, with barrettes and possibly the original set. No broken or repaired fingers. Skin tone is even and clean. Has some paint wear at all joints. Light crazing, no chips or lifting. Most of the lines in her face are hairs. But if you really magnify the pics you can see the lighter lines which are crazing. Has a crack on the side of one eye and one coming down from the same eye. Some cracks on her upper thighs. Clothing is all in good condition, has working snaps but the feathers were replaced and are shedding BADLY. The tag is present but illegible. Skating pants are more blue color – probably because the skating dress was washed and has faded. Flowers on dress and in hair look original. Please read the description and examine the photos – both are an important part of the description. If unsure, ask questions or request more photos. After the sale, please pay or request more time within three days. Check out my other items for lots more vintage dolls, accessories and doll repair auctions.
