Lot consists of: The larger of the two dolls, 22-1/2" (57cm), is a Kestner with head incised "Made in Germany 167". She has brown glass sleep eyes, painted lower lashes, an open mouth with four upper teeth, and well painted lashes with nice even facial coloring. On the original fully jointed German wood and composition body with original finish and a red stamp on the back torso of "Germany 4". She is wearing a white linen dress in 1900's style and a brass pin with pearl-like edging. Original blond mohair wig, over a newer cloth pate, and she wears white leather shoes of newer vintage than the doll. The second, slightly smaller doll, 19-1/2" (50cm), is a Kammer & Reinhardt incised on the back of the head "Simon & Halbig, K & R 50", with an open mouth and blue glass eyes which both sleep and also flirt from side to side. Coloring is good with shiny patina, and the head mounted on the original fully articulated German wood and composition body, with old slight overpaint overall and hands which have been painted a darker color than the remainder of the body. She wears an antique cotton dress with a silk ribbon sash and has a very nice human hair wig and white newer leather shoes. The wig and shoes are both old, but newer than the doll itself. Condition: (Very Good). Dimensions: Largest: 22" x 7" x 4".
