Composition Doll for Restoration
Early 20th Century, Approximately 13 Inches Tall
An early 20th-century composition baby doll set offered as a restoration project for collectors or doll hospitals. Composition dolls, characterized by their mixture of organic materials like sawdust and glue, were a staple of toy manufacturing from the 1900s through the 1940s. This lot includes the primary doll components along with a varied collection of vintage doll clothing, providing a comprehensive start for a period-accurate restoration.
• Doll components include head, torso with one attached arm, and two detached legs
• Molded hair detail and painted facial features typical of the era
• Extensive wardrobe included: multiple cotton dresses, striped shirts, bloomers, and a small textile bag
• Approximately 13 inches in total height when assembled
Condition: For repair and restoration only. The composition material exhibits heavy crazing, deep cracking, and surface flaking across all body parts. The head is detached with a significant area of material loss on the back and side. Both legs are detached from the torso wire hooks. Clothing items show age-appropriate wear including significant staining, fraying at the seams, and some tearing. No maker's marks were identified on the torso or head.
