18 Antique Porcelain German China Head ABG Blonde Hair Exp. Ears Leather Arms
From the Hamel estate comes this wonderful example of a blonde child by Alt Beck Gottschalck ABG from 1880 with exposed ears. There are no chips or cracks to her lovely head. She is on an antique cloth body with kid arms with individual fingers. There is age related damage to the fingers and hands. She is wearing antique bloomers, petticoat and chemise. She also has her original silk socks that are melting. Not sure if they could tenderly mended but they need to stay with her. She wears an appropriate style vintage red dress with antique lace and silk ribbons. I say vintage not antique dress because it is machine stitched with snaps to close in back.
