celluloid vintage dolls, animals etc.......

Celluloid is a type of early plastics.  It was first used for dolls by the French in the 19th Century, then the Germans and by 20th Century it was used by the Japanese and American doll makers.
Celluloid dolls are somewhat fragile and are often found dented, cracked or broken completely.
Many of these baby dolls were used for International costume dolls and wore handmade clothing of the country. 
Some of the older International costume dolls were manufactured in their factory made outfits depicting the country they were purchased from.

DEEP MOLDED CURLS PAINTED HAIR

This doll has been made by Palitoy in England circa 1930. and is almost 100 years old.
She was called "Princess Elizabeth" which was Queen Elizabeth 11 when she was a young girl.
She is made of celluloid which is a fragile type of product and easily broken.
It is a wonder that these dolls still exist as they were made as a play toy for children.

She has the markings on her back in a circle:
"Palitoy cascelloid Made England"
 the number "55" in the centre of the circle


 

​She has a:

.even flesh colour all over her body
.deep moulded painted curls on her head

.red painted closed mouth (not sure if it has been repainted)
.some marks and wear to her body as you expect from a vintage item
.legs have a middle seam but no cracks
.one middle foot seam may have had a past repair
.bottom of feet seams may have been repaired in past life
.crush to one side of her body
.crush to upper arm of one arm
.small hole to toe of one foot
.fingernails and toenails may have been painted pink at later date (not sure)

She is wearing a pretty vintage 3 piece handmade outfit which could be 50 years or more old.  The brim of the bonnet shows wear, and a repair - see phot
