    Description

    18" Antique Steiner Doll A Series. Condition is "Used". Shipped with USPS Priority Mail.  Beautiful antique Steiner doll.  She has a few flaws but nothing major. Her bisque is free from cracks or hairlines.  He earring holes are enlarged from years of earrings rubbing on them.  One hole has a small paint loss. Please see the pictures.  Behind that same ear someone has written some numbers in faint writing.  One antique earring wire broke.  I have the earring and will ship it with the doll.  The dress is beautiful but in shreds. The socks are the same color as the dress, but have faded at the top.  One shoe is missing a sole and the shoes look worn. She could use a cleaning, but I will leave that to someone who knows what they are doing.  As I was examining her I found a small area on one of her hands that looks repainted.  I am including a photo of it.  It may be a repair of the finger.  She may have a few other areas of touch ups on her body, but I don't know and the body looks pretty original to me and still has her original stamp.  Please ask questions.  I am not an expert.
    I received the following message from another helpful ebayer.  Please note this with the description of the doll:
    Hi, you may wish to know and note in description: the left ear had the tip at the base repaired (modeled in material and then over painted in flesh color) and the writing is a record of that repair. It is a relatively minor restoration, but should be mentioned.
