Found this cutie pie at a local Goodwill with my best friend, pics to follow. I'm not usually a porcelain doll kinda person, but somehow the combination of her being a ballerina/dancer doll and a broken finger spoke to me. I guess the ballerina part caught my eye initially and then once I noticed the broken finger, I kinda felt sorry for her.
Didn't think to get a "before" shot, sorry, but here she is after I cleaned her body and straightened up her hairdo. I have her in what I think is meant to be an 18" doll outfit I got around the same time. Tried it on her after realizing it's just a little too small for my American girls, and it just looks to me like she's wearing hand-me-downs, which I find really cute. Third pic is what she was wearing when I got her, and if it's accurate, that would make her a 1994 Ashton-Drake My Little Ballerina doll, which makes a fair amount of sense given her sculpt.
