1972 Kenner Blythe doll. This is a redhead sidepart doll. She comes nude with an original Kenner doll stand. There are some melt marks and some indelible staining on the stand.
Details on the doll:
Her eyes work perfectly. Her pull-string is still attached. There is no clouding of the eyechips, nor yellowing of the eyeballs. All eyelashes are intact and unbent.
Her eye makeup is undamaged. She retains some of her original blush. She does have a small rub on the lower lip. Her face is not yellowed. There are a few small scuffs here and there on her face, but nothing large enough to get a photo of. She has the small holes behind the ears for the Kenner sunglasses (not included).
Her hair is slightly frizzy at the ends, but does retain most of her original curl. Her hair thatching is intact. I see no missing or loose hair plugs. Her hair does not appear to have ever been cut. There is no "scalp goo", but there is a slight gap between the scalp and the top of the head that looks a bit rough in places. The scalp has not come detached in the 2+ years she's been here.
Her body is clean, stain-free, and in excellent condition. Head, arms, legs, and waist all turn easily. There is no "butt crack". The right knee bends and holds three clicks. The left knee will bend three clicks, but only holds two. There are pinpricks behind and on both sides of both knees, and also one on her left foot.
There are seven lines of text on her back:
