When I first purchased my
Addy doll on eBay, I was nervous. I didn't see the pics of the zip tie
until after my winning bid. Then I received her in the mail.
She arrived in a white box with glossy white silhouettes of girls playing.
Next,
I checked her head. She has the (c) Pleasant Company and the artist's
mark by her right ear. She also has earrings that are not made to be
removed. The zip tie on the neck is a little concerning. Her legs are
not tight, but her arms are fine. My guess is that perhaps her eyes were
replaced. They are in mint condition for a 23 year old doll.
Her
eye lashes are long and soft. There are no marks on her face. Her hair
is a different texture, but that may be true to her character. Her hands
and feet are detailed and she even has dimpled knees. She came with the
Addy accessories: a straw bonnet, shell necklace, gourd, and a scarf.
She even came with her original paperwork and two books: #1 and #5.
I
am totally captivated by her. Eventually I will get her legs tightened
and replace the zip tie with a string, but for right now I want to enjoy
her.

That's awesome that you got her, she looks beautiful!
ReplyDeleteShe does look to be in great shape. I still have my daughter's AG girl who is an Asian Today's Girl that came out in 1998. her leg joints are a bit loose, but her hair and eyes are in perfect condition. I am wondering if this has something to do with the fact that her eyes are dark brown like Addy's?
