You are looking at a rare, beautiful IDEAL 'PRINCESS BEATRIX' composition and cloth doll. This doll was made by IDEAL circa 1938. She was released by IDEAL to commemorate the birth of PRINCESS BEATRIX, who later became BEATRIX, HM Queen of the NETHERLANDS.
This PRINCESS BEATRIX is in excellent restored condition. She will come with a hang tag identifying her as a doll restored here at DOLL HEAVEN.
She measures 17" in length and has a head circumference of 13". Her head, FULL arms with CLENCHED FISTS, and 3/4 of her legs are made of composition. Note that the head was used by Ideal and other manufacturers for a number of dolls but the head with the full arms and clenched fists identify her as a true PRINCESS BEATRIX. This doll has been given a NEW clean cloth body with New clean stuffing. Her crier still works.
PRINCESS BEATRIX has dark brown curly molded hair, painted lashes, painted lower lashes, shadow above her eyes, 'real lashes', and painted eyebrows. She has soft coloring with blush in the ‘right’ places. She has a closed red mouth. Her face is breathtakingly beautiful. She has brown sleep and flirty (side-glancing) eyes.
PRINCESS BEATRIX will come dressed as seen in the pictures. She’s wearing a lovely outfit designed and crafted here at DOLL HEAVEN. It consists of a long white cotton lawn gown, long half-slip, pantaloons, and an embroidered (in pink) name tag. The gown is adorned with lovely pink Venice lace, pin tucks, pink satin ribbon, white insertion lace, and white lace at the hem. The bonnet has a brim made out of pink Venice lace used on the gown.
WHAT A RARE SWEET OLD BABY!
