<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4"><tr><td><em> </em></td></tr><tr> <td width="100%"> 1914 J D KESTNER 24in BABY HILDA NEEDS TLC. This is a very large example of Baby Hilda with bisque head and composition body. She is fully marked in the back of the head " Made in Germany, 245, JDKestner Jr, HILDA, 1914, C with a circle around it." Her bisque head, although it doesnot show any hairlines or breaks, has been restored professionally and some of the paint is lifting as shown in the photos. The composition body is original and in very good condition. She has the original human hair wig, real teeth, wobble tongue, and big blue eyes that sleep. She wears an antique bonnet(with new ribbons), that might be her original one, and an embroidered white cotton gown or an antique long flowing gown of sheer fabric with flowered embroidery. Buyer can have their pick of either outfit. Albeit her imperfections, this Baby Hilda is still quite charming! This doll, according to Jan Foulke in Blue Book of Dolls & Values, books for $6000-$6500 in good condition. </td></tr><tr> <td> </td></tr><tr> <td>Reference #: 12000001</td></tr><tr><td>Condition:good</td></tr><tr><td>Year:1914</td></tr><tr><td>Height:24</td></tr><tr><td>Title:1914 JD KESTNER 24in BABY HILDA NEEDS TLC</td></tr><tr><td>Location:los angeles</td></tr></table>
