DOLLS FOR SALE ....

Im quite sad to sell these dolls but we really need a car so the dollies have to go ! ...as you probably know here in cornwall it isnt ideal outdoor photography weather so the majority of the photos are ones i have taken over the years, i tried taking some in esmes room today but i shall try on monday again when the weather should improve after tomorrows looming storm ....
the postage for uk will be £10, i will need to find out the cost for europe and the rest of the world...
if you could pay by cheque or gift paypal please.....I CAN NOW DO A SHORT LAYAWAY ....

SOLD...MYSTERY GIRL.....

I have no idea how much to ask for this girl as im not really sure if anyone will want her....she is a real mystery, she is a very petite girl, with nearly a FCP but it doesnt quite reach the bottom of her neck, her hair line indicates a doll from the early 70s, yet she is strung with striped elastic to her legs and white to her arms,this looks to be original as the elastic is clamped with the metal "clamps" that the factory used, shes not been restrung,  she comes wearing her early marbled london outfit that needs to be reglued...the main thing you will notice is that she barely has eyes, ive been told that this paint she has is the spray they put on before the eyes were handfinished, this dolls eyes were sprayed brown instead of blue by mistake, so she was a reject and was never hand finished....maybe one of the staff was then able to take her home, ive no idea !!!....so im open to offers if anyone would like her, im not expecting lots of money for her so feel free to get in touch ...







SOLD....CRUDE EYED GIRL....

This lovely lady wont come to you in the outfit shown, i still have had no chance of taking any photos and these were taken a while ago, instead she will be wearing a red and white gingham dress set that i hopefully will be able to photograph tomorrow....she is in really good order, can pose well and has beautful sofy silky shiny hair, which again i will take a photo of soon....











SOLD.... 1968 BLONDE GREGOR...

This boy as you can see is SO pretty , beautiful hair and eye paint, in good order can hold a pose well, comes wearing brown sandals jeans and belt, jumper and duffle coat...(no vest or pants)...




SOLD.......REROOT GOTZ....

This girl has been rerooted (not by me) in flame red hair that is really swishy with alight wave to it, she has quite dark skin and a lovely face, she can pose but maybe could do with her strings being tightened, she has slight neck caving and her head is difficult to pose due to this, it wants to look ahead and not down, she will come in the lilac dress that i think is by betsymay , matching knickers, socks and shoes by ruth ....the first photo was taken a while ago and thats not the outfit she will come with ....







FOR SALE...PALE SKIN GOTZ....£750...OFFERS INVITED

Im very sad about selling this girl, she will come wearing her candy striped outfit, the dress is in good order but the collar is slightly discoloured, her matching knickers need new elastic, she has her vest and socks and orange soled shoes with heels with a no 6 on the bottom...she also comes with her original gotz wrist  tag...
im undecided about the size of her head, it appears larger than my other small head girls but isnt as big as my large head girls, maybe they made medium ?, she has quite an unusual face, quite wide and flat looking...shes very pale with some pink round her eyes, her hair is very soft and silky and shiny but when i brushed it today for the first time i found it to be falling at the back, im sure it will be fine though as ive never noticed a problem untill today and she has plenty of it ....

  2. They're all lovely - such a shame that a car has to come first. I hope you find some good homes for them very soon so you can get that car.

  4. I'm so sorry that you are having to part with these beautiful dolls, especially the Gotz girls who are your very favourite, but can appreciate that one can't really do without a family car however the good public transpost is.
    I would have loved to have 'snapped' up one or two but as you know I'm having to help with major roof and window repairs/replacements on my daughter's Victorian Lodge home.
