HUGE model of the scarcer model 128 character baby from Kammer and Reinhardt with the head incised " K*R SIMON& HALBIG 128 72 " with blue glass sleep eyes, open mouth with two upper teeth and separately molded tongue, upper and lower painted eyebrows, deep dimple in the center of the chin, and mounted on the original five piece bent limb composition body with original finish ( some typical wear and cracks in places ) and wearing a strawberry blond mohair wig over cardboard pate and all antique white cotton and lace clothing and bonnet. The condition is overall very good with a few light wig pulls but all are concealed with the wig in place. Even the common K&R 126's in this largest size are relatively rare, but to find a 128 in this size is remarkable. She is priced reasonably at about the same price that one would expect to pay for a 126 in this size. US$ 1,950.

 

 

Petite 12 1/2" ( 32cm ) Simon-Halbig with " Belton "-style solid dome head incised " S H 3 1/2 949 " with deep brown paperweight eyes, well painted upper and lower lashes, feathered eyebrows, closed full mouth with hint of a smile, accent dots in the inner corners of the eyes, pierced ears, and on a fully articulated wood and composition body with straight wrists with fine original finish. She wears her original upswept blond mohair wig, and all factory made period clothing comprised of a one piece pink and white cotton gauze dress with lace trim, matching pink cotton socks, and white cloth shoes with pompoms, and a wonderful straw bonnet with cloth flowers. Most Simon-Halbig 949's tend to be big dolls so it is rare to find such a small example on a Belton-type body. US$ 2,450.
