Mint without box -- Vintage 1969 Vogue Baby Dear doll with beautiful and flawless dark 'skin' --
 
EXTREMELY RARE VOGUE BABY DEAR DOLL~
 
First issued in 1969, this African American is the 12" version of the 'newly redesigned' issue that was initially produced in 1965.... as photographed, she looks quite pleased with herself!
 
History note~ the FIRST redesigned Vogue Baby Dear doll was made in 1964, but had a completely different mold head and was only produced one year before being redesigned once again the following year to the same 'classic' face/mold you see here.
 
Baby Dear is MINT without original box. She is dressed in her original factory complete outfit -- nylon organdy dress with attached slip and TAGGED; matching bonnet; and rayon socks with original ribbon ties. Her markings say Vogue Doll 1964 on her neck and E.Wilkins on her leg.
 
She has never been played with and I find no flaws. Her dress has the classic 'star dot' design, and has a nice crisp Vogue Tag inside. Her body is beautiful with even warm brown vinyl. The vinyl is soft like her earlier predecesors (some where later made of hard molded vinyl). Her eyes open and close and have soft brush lashes.
 
I will add a reproduction copy of her original Hang Tag (not pictured), as well as the little pink rattle.
 
She is the PERFECT ADDITION to your 1960s doll nursery and would love to join any Baby Dear doll collection.
