14R Pat. Pending Glamour Doll with Jointed Wrists
Many vinyl glamour dolls of the late 1950s and early 1960s are marked 14R on the back of their heads, sometimes with other marks as well. These dolls have a wide variety of hair colors, hair styles and body types.
This example is 19″ tall and marked 14R-1 on the back of her head, and PAT. PENDING in an oval on the right side of her blow-molded torso. This is the first time I have ever seen a side marking on a glamour doll. Her torso is very straight, with a small bust and hips. In addition to the usual neck/shoulder/hip joints, she has jointed wrists as well. Her dark blonde hair is very short and may have been trimmed.
