    Description

    21-inch Biggadur Vinyl "Tara Bell" sculpted by doll artist Hildegard Gunzel for WPM Waltershausen Puppenmanufaktur of Germany, 2001 from a limited edition of 350.
    She has been displayed in an enclosed doll case away from heat and sun since her purchase in 2002 and has never been undressed or played with.
    Sweet little Tara Bell is #69 from a limited edition of 350 dolls. She has her original COA which is a WPM red passport with information about her and doll artist Hildegard Gunzel. Tara Bell holds a marotte pop-up toy or since she is German, it is perhaps a Schultage (cone with special toys and treats given to a child to celebrate the first day or the last day of school).
    Head is marked: WPM 2001
    Back marked: 69/350
    Tara Bell has a blonde human hair wig in wispy little braids and bangs. The rubber bands holding her braids were deteriorated from age of 20 years so they have been replaced with ribbon ties. Tara Bell has blue inset blown-glass eyes with real upper lashes and multi-stroke eyebrows, blushed cheeks, and full slightly parted lips in peach lip color.
    Body:
    Her Biggadur Vinyl body has a jointed breastplate and vinyl lower arms and legs. The bottom of her torso, upper arms and legs are cloth and allow her to pose and sit.
    Clothing:
    Her lovely and all original dress is made of light peach linen-look polished cotton with a light green and blue satinette cummerbund; both the dress and cummerbund button in back. it has a Peter Pan collar, mid-length sleeves and has a light green band at the hem. Tara Bell has a little white woven cotton undershirt that buttons in back and white pantaloons with eyelet lace edging. Note: The elastic has lost its elasticity over the 20 years; this is the only flaw that I have to report; she is lovely. Tara Bell has white socks and white leatherette Mary Jane shoes that fasten on the sides.
    Pop-up Toy:
    Clown on a wooden stick that disappears down inside the cone. Note: The clown is different than the elf that is shown on Tara Bell's WPM passport, but it is the original one that came with her in 2001.
    Tara Bell will come with her stand. She does not have an original box, but I will use a Gotz box that fits her perfectly.
    No returns please unless I have somehow misrepresented her in my description. Thank you.
