14-inch Ideal Toni Doll from the 1940s, crafted from hard plastic. The doll is marked "Ideal Doll P-90" on its back and showcases the classic sleep eye mechanism, allowing her eyes to open and close as her position changes. She has her original hair which has been restyled, and comes dressed in a vibrant set of reproduced clothes: a red and white floral-trimmed dress, apron, undergarments, socks, and shoes. The doll's condition displays normal age-related wear, particularly visible on the legs and hands. This early hard plastic doll captures the look and feel of mid-20th-century American childhood toys and remains a collectible piece from the Ideal Toy Company. **SHIPPING NOT RECOMMENDED Shipping is not recommended for this doll due to the extremely delicate sleep eye mechanism. The internal eye assembly cannot be properly secured for safe transit without compromising the structural integrity of the doll. While we take great care in packaging every item, we cannot ensure the safe arrival of this doll through standard shipping methods. Bidders who require shipping are strongly encouraged to reconsider purchasing this item. If a buyer chooses to have the doll shipped despite this recommendation, they do so entirely at their own risk. The seller and auction company assume no responsibility or liability for any damage that may occur during transit or upon arrival at its destination.
