Condition
Good vintage played with condition. Hair is tousled with age related frizz and needs careful styling. Dress shows wear and fraying around the lace edges. Shoes show marks and surface wear. Original box has substantial age toning staining edge wear creasing and top flap damage. Grow hair mechanism has not been confirmed from the photographs and should be listed as untested unless verified before sale.
Collector Appeal: Original box plus correct period clothing and shoes make this considerably more desirable than a loose incomplete Crissy.
