Item History & Price
JOANNE OF THE VERY MANY AND VARIED EBAY NAMES - do not bid on my auctions - even if you pay your bid will be cancelled …...
IF YOU HAVE NO FEEDBACK AND ARE A NEW EBAYER, WELCOME TO OUR WORLD. BUT PLEASE CONTACT ME BEFORE YOU BID, AND LET ME KNOW WHO YOU ARE. THERE IS A BIDDER THAT MOST ALEXANDER COLLECTORS WILL NOT ALLOW BIDS FROM, SO PLEASE DON'T BE OFFENDED IF YOU ARE NEW AND I WANT TO KNOW YOUR NAME BEFORE YOU BID. If I sell a doll over $2...50, I pay extra for tracked and insured post.. I have earned my 100% glowing feedback...For items sent to the USA, expect delivery from 6 to 10 working days, sometimes it's a bit quicker, sometimes it takes a tad longer. But - they always get there with never any travel damage, I pack very carefully and well.PLEASE NOTE: Cissys lovely dress is not faded on the bodice, that's my camera light. Small faults are: cissys head is a tad wobbly, there is a little paint missing on cissys eyelids as her eyes are closed. Her lashes could be replaced because some of them have fallen out, none of these are major issues but I have reflected these in my price. NO HARD PLASTIC SMELL ON THIS DOLL, AND WE HAVE A NON-SMOKING HOME.Very nice wig in virtually the original set, I don't think there has been any cuts or trims, wig has a lot of hair and it's clean. Cissy wears her original purple butterly dress.. It is tagged, and dress is clean and colour is bright. There are no rips or tears. I have taken a shot of the tag inside, and a close up of the bodice and original belt with original darling little buckle.This outfit is on page 78 of Kiley Shaw's "The Cissy Files" book. A very hard to find dress, this is gorgeous. It is trimmed with val lace on the bodice, all in nice condition. It has little rhinestone studs which are placed on the upturned cuffs, so cute.. This dress will come with a original Cissy taffeta white slip with net at the bottom, to hold out her dress. Cissy also comes with her original knickers. Vintage stockings and black shoes. Although in Kileys book this dress is shown as being bought on a doll, I can't guarantee this dress came on this doll. However they suit each other and I've had them both like this for many years.Cissy comes with her original and gorgeous purple hat, complete with original flowers and veiling. This doll is the earlier painted model, and this Cissy has lovely colouring, with prettily pink cheeks, original. Nice sleeping eyes with lashes, some have fallen out and if I were keeping her, I would replace lashes. Kiley's new book will show you how to replace lashes, this book is a "must buy" for cissy collectors, with fabulous coloured pictures and clear instructions on how to make your collection of cissy dolls look amazing again...This cissy is in excellent condition, clean and with no splits or cracks. If you want a really nice blonde cissy, this could be it. No enhancements.A pretty wig, a very full blonde, and a beautiful and hard to find wig in this condition, in almost the original set, no cuts or trims. Wig is very thick and clean. Dress is tagged as you can see. PLEASE NOTE, I CHARGE MY BUYERS A FIXED AMOUNT OF $22 FOR POSTAGE TO THE U.S.A. I ACTUALLY PAY OVER $50, BECAUSE I TRACK AND FULLY INSURE. VERY SAFE FOR BOTH OF US....This is a very pretty cissy, she has “the look” cissy collectors love. You won’t be disappointed in this doll. Thanks for looking at my auction, please ask questions if I’ve left out something important to you. This is a vintage 1950s Alexander Cissy doll, all hard plastic with vinyl over sleeve arms....
