    Description

    You are bidding on what I believe is an American Character doll---14" tall--possibly a Sweet Sue Sophisticate. I am not sure of this identification---so use your own judgment.  I checked my American Character ID book and found one much like her, so assuming that is what she is. She is dressed in what I think is her original bridal gown and veil.
    I will describe her carefully--read description, check pictures, and email me with questions. The doll is sold as pictured and described, and returns are accepted only if not described accurately---buyer pays all shipping charges on returns.
    I have had this doll for several years---and she has been displayed along with other brides in a glass front case--no odors. The doll is 14" tall--unmarked, but I do believe she was made by American Character. She has dark blonde hair--pulled back from her face (I have tied it with a white cord). She has blue open/close eyes which work fine, very, very lightly blushed cheeks, and red lips.  She wears pearl earrings which are complete.
    The bridal gown has faded to ivory---I have shown a spot on one side--it is not mint, but displays nicely.  It has a satin bodice and sleeves, both trimmed with organza.  A tulip shaped satin skirt trimmed with ribbons in front falls over a floor length skirt of taffeta and net--All snaps work in back.
    The doll's taffeta panties have stretched out elastic, and the full slip is stained at the bottom--I believe from a wire hoop which was removed---I have shown it in the pictures.The dress is not mint and probably needs to be washed, but I have not tried to restore it---so please be aware of these faults and bid accordingly.
    The doll wears a circular veil which extends from a pointed satin hat which is trimmed with pearls--one tiny dent on front of cap which you can see.  I only mention it to give a complete description--doesn't really distract. .
    The doll twists at the waist--legs and arms both move--body seems to be in good condition, and it holds a pose fine.
    Examine the pictures and read the description carefully---she is sold as pictured and described---read return policy above.
    We will pack well and ship by Priority Mail with delivery confirmation. Overseas shipping is fine--but we don't ship to China, Ukraine, Italy, or the Russian Federation.
