the head in red " PARIS BEBE Tete Deposee 11 " , with huge " owl-like "
brown paperweight eyes, well pained lashes and brows, and the typical and
more desirable " Jumeau " face with the longer nose and tight pinched
nostrils with the so-called " character " face. She is on a wonderful fully
jointed French wood and composition body with straight wrists with near mint
original finish, and is beautifully costumed in an antique two piece peach
silk pleated dress with fine net lace overlay trimmed in antique pink silk
