Condition: Condition is subjective and although this doll is used, there is either factor flaws around the nose or a chip on the nose repaired with a white color mixture (reminds me of white-out). This is how I purchased this young lady (see photographs). Chip on the right edge of her nose which is darkened. Wear to blush. Spot of glaze missing off top right of boot factory flaw. I may not have caught everything so please rely on pictures as part of description. Please see photographs and / or video and ask prior to bidding any questions you may have regarding this item.
