Posted by in rare
Rare 18 Vintage All Original Madame Alexander Glamour Girl Doll Godey Lady. She is one of 7 gorgeous dolls from the Madame Alexander Glamour Girls series – produced only in 1953. Please reference page 57-58 of book “Treasury of Madame Alexander Dolls” by Jan Foulke, C 1983, Second Edition, Hobby House Press, where the seven dolls in the series are pictured and described: A breath-taking series of seven ladies created by madame Alexander in 1953. All are 18 hard plastic dolls with walking mechanism…. All the costumes are of the Civil War Period Gone-With-theWind type…. Full skirts, tiny waists and hoop skirts. This beautiful 18 Glamour Girl Godey Doll is all original and very hard to find. These were high end dolls when made, and since they were made one year only, all seven are rarely found. She has the Maggie face, clear brown sleep eyes with all lashes intact, and is dressed in full length gown having apricot red taffeta skirt with white bodice and sleeves, over this she wears a gray faux fur stole lined with matching taffeta, ribbon ties. Matching bonnet has wide brim and gathered crown. She has wired crinoline petticoat with deep ruffled hem, ruffled bloomers, white thigh high seamed stockings and black shoes. Dress retains “Madame Alexander” cloth label – retains crisp lettering. She is a walker, head is a little loose, but turns smoothly when legs move. She has nice coloring – bangs are feathered and a little uneven but I believe that’s how she was made. There is no box or wrist tag, and no hat box. Shoes and stockings are in near mint condition. She will be a star addition to any collection of early Madame Alexander fashion ladies……… Or specialized collection of the 7 dolls that made up the Glamour Girl Series. Thank you for looking!
