Description

This 18" Averill Rock a Bye Baby is documented in the online "
Doll Reference" site as "unmarked". The doll is unusual, and possibly rare, for the three crier boxes in the body and the short production time from 1921 to 1924. She has a sweet face and is lovely in a new outfit including:
A blue organza dress accented with lace and pink ribbon.
A blue organza bonnet accented with lace and pink ribbon.
A slip and matching underwear accented with lace.
Soft vinyl white booties with white ribbon.
