Appears to be an Arranbee Nancy Lee doll from the late 1930s or 1940s, featuring a classic composition body and measuring 19 inches tall. This doll has a blonde mohair wig, glass or tin sleep eyes, and an open mouth with painted lips. She is dressed in a red wool coat, a houndstooth skirt, socks, and black shoes; lingerie pieces are included. Notable paint wear is present to the torso, limbs, and neck consistent with age. The head shows minor scuffing and crackling. Overall, an example of the period's craftsmanship with significant display and collectible appeal. 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.
