Original Description:
VINTAGE 1951 16 IN. TERRI LEE DOLL. Condition is Used.   This is a beautiful Terri Lee  Doll, 1951 Patent Pending 16 in. Doll.  This Patent Pending doll is noticeably heavier than a doll with the hallmark Terri Lee.  In 1952, The Terri Lee Doll Company moved to a new location, Apple Valley, California.  At this time, new molds for the doll were purchased.  The new molds were lighter in weight than previous doll molds.  The "Patent Pending" hallmark wa...s dropped from the back of the doll molds. "Experienced doll collectors can tell just by lifting a doll whether she is Patent Pending or not, "  reports Peggy Weidman Casper, in her book, Fashionable Terri Lee Dolls , page 112, the source of my research.
This doll has a blond wig that is, in my opinion, original, but has been cut at some point.  The wig has been restyled.  She has the one-stroke eyebrows and painted eyelashes, 3 on upper right, 4 on upper left, 2 on lower right, and 3 on lower left.  Her body is in very good vintage condition; no cracks, split seams, odors and tight stringing.  She has slight staining on her left ankle, which I have tried to show in photo #5.
I have been a Terri Lee doll collector since my parents gave me my first Terri Lee doll (Patent Pending) for Christmas in 1951.  It is time for my to send my beautiful treasures to a new home where they will be loved as much as I have loved them.
Please ask questions prior to bidding and thank you for visiting my auction.
