Ideal Composition Doll 20 inch. Need help identifying. She is a look alike to Ideal Suzette I De Lite Doll, but she is composition. If you know any information, please share. She is a mama type doll for sure.

She is marked on the back of the head Ideal Made in USA. She is a lovely, all composition socket head with jointed body, and needs attention, she is a bit wobbly, but sits well once situated and she did stand leaning on my photo both without a doll stand for this listings pictures. She has glass sleep eyes, but they have crystalized, which is so common with glass eyes. She has the original top lashes and painted lower lashes and brows. Open mouth with two teeth and felt tongue and a mohair wig. Her face has very light crazing and remains just beautiful and the color is wonderful, the original patina has not been restored or repaired. Her mohair wig needs attention or replacement, part of the top is missing. She has all her fingers and her hands are over all in excellent condition, with minimal play wear. Her belly and back have severe crazing and cracked, but dressed, she displays well. She has a small tiny crack above one knee near dimple. She has very light crazing on leg that is barely visible. Just as pictured. All I have done is remove clothing for pictures, I have not tried any restoration. She does have some play soiling here and there, but selling just as found.

She is dressed in a slip with pantaloons with tatted or crochet lace trim. No tears, but the slip has a few spots on the front and a black mark at the top near her neck. I have not washed. She has her adorable dress, white with pink stripes and flowers with two pockets. Snap back closure. Her dress does have some soiling, again I have not washed it. She has on white with pink trim socks and black leather Mary Jane style shoes. Both her shoes and socks have wear, but remain well as seen.

She will be packed well secured for safe shipment.
