Mystery dolls from the hoard

[victoriavictrix]

It looks like the unused holes might be a hairline that was molded or stamped on to her to act like a guide. I've seen it in some other dolls.

She is an early version of a 70s doll that was an exclusive import from Europe for a department store. They had different natural hair colors and some had tan skin. And her eyes sleep.

Is that a Cindy/Sindy doll?

I have a friend who collects original Cindy dolls. I don't think that looks like any of hers.

Edited for dyslexic tendencies.....

Not a Cindy or by any of those companies. She's from mainland Europe.

Thanks. She is a cutie

Eli?

[DollyKim]

Nope The country she's from is in the company's name and they made several types of dolls. 1971 was a good year for her.

[victoriavictrix]

Well I give up then.

She is by Italocremona, was first called Vanessa but most were sold as Corinne, and I am told were exclusive to Sears.

And if anyone out there wants her more than me that's no problem. I just saw an older doll at the store.

She has that European look to her. Kind of exciting and neat to meet a doll that I'd never heard whisper of before.
