This doll has not been identified, but she is most likely Cindy made by Dee and Cee in the early sixties, as she closely resembles their other Cindy dolls.
Body Construction
This pretty lady is 17" tall, all vinyl and jointed at the neck, shoulders, waist and hips. She has sleep eyes with brush lashes, pierced ears and red painted finger- and toenails. Her rooted blonde hair is styled in a short bubblecut.
Markings
She is marked "D & C" on the back of her head below the hairline.
Clothing
This doll wears a black satin cocktail dress with a black knit and silver lurex bodice and a black net overskirt. The dress is fastened with two black buttons in the back. Pinned to her head is a small circle hat of the same material as the bodice trimmed in the black net. She's also wearing black satin panties, sheer beige nylon hose and black plastic ankle strap shoes. Click here to see the back of the dress and hat.
