Her face is stunning, much prettier than the current issues dolls. She is in excellent condition. She has never been played with. She was displayed wearing different outfits for several years when I first got her.
Her hair has never been out of the braid. I replaced the elastic band on her braid because the original one rotted. There are some wispy loose hairs, due to being caught on the velcro on her blouses. The set is described as follows: Wrap Josefina's long, fringed shawl around her shoulders. It's called a "rebozo", and in 1824 girls wore one everywhere for added warmth or to protect their faces from the summer sun.
Fasten the garnet'pendant around her neck-it came all the way from Mexico City. Her leather "pouch" is the perfect place to tuck an embroidered "hankie" a jola "coin" and any primroses she might pick. This set is complete and in mint condition it does not come in the original box.
It will be included with the doll. Things I want to mention: The leather lace on one of her shoes has broken on the end due to drying out and becoming fragile.
Her box is not in mint condition, it shows shelf wear and the American Girl Maroon Band is missing and she does not come with her book. I bought the hard cover set separately and gave the paperback one away. I have taken many more photos than I can upload so if you want more photos or have question please don't hesitate to contact me and I will get right back to you.
