Composition Head with Cloth Body Boudoir Doll, typically referred to as an Anita or Anita-Type doll. Unknown maker, great coloring. She wears what appears to be satin with silk trim pajamas, no shoes. Navy blue silk is shredding/disintegrating so there's a good chance the trim shown in the photo won't be there; it's crumbling and falling off. Typical crazing/aging/paint loss. Overall in good+ condition.

Composition Head with Cloth Body Boudoir Doll, typically referred to as an Anita or Anita-Type doll. Unknown maker, great coloring. She wears what used to be a dress, however, I removed the lower half because it was so heavy and overwhelmed her, and although vintage home-made, wasn't of the era of the doll. She also wears a crocheted collar that I repaired. She wears original lilac? pink? boudoir doll shoes.  Her felt hat still has the store tag on it. Typical crazing/aging/paint loss. Overall in good+ condition.

Fantastic and rare 29” silk-faced doll dressed in felt ensemble. She was made to be in a standing position. Her legs are wired inside to make them stiff. She wears a felt pleated skirt with matching jacket. Attached to her skirt is a tag that reads, “Made in France for Abraham & Straus Brooklyn.” She wears a silk tie and is holding a pair of suede gloves and matching clutch purse. She has red silk floss hair and her face is covered in silk. There is silk loss on areas of her face, but they do not detract from her overall greatness. Her costume is detailed with wool collar and pocket trim, and she wears a flower corsage on her jacket at her neck.There are some surface moth holes along the sides of her jacket, and her right shoe is missing part of the heel.
