Name: Shari Lewis
Maker: Madame Alexander
Size: 14"
Medium: hard plastic
Date: 1958-1959
Description:
She is in excellent all-original condition, only missing one shoe.
Hand-painted feathered brows, lower lashes, rosy cheeks and red mouth
enhance her deep green sleep eyes with molded upper lashes.
The doll has a beautiful strawberry-blonde wig pulled back from the
temples into a fall of curls and a ponytail of curls at the nape.
This head & body mold were only used for Shari Lewis: long shapely
legs with long high-heeled feet, young woman's body, and sensitive
portrait head, she is jointed at shoulders, neck and hips.
Her fine straw bonnet has pink & rose-colored cloth roses across
the brim, and a black velvet hatband. The coral dress, usually seen
in turquoise, is moiré-print polished cotton with multi-pleats, open
collar, rhinestones at her cuffs and original gold chain belt with
three dangling gold balls.
A crispy nylon petticoat and taffeta panties, 'pearl' drop earrings,
near-perfect nylon stockings (small spot from rhinestone on shoe)
and one (stretched) gold-elastic high-heel shoe complete the ensemble.
