Description: #91 Summer, Bisque Nancy Ann Storybook Doll, 1940s. Jointed plastic arms, frozen legs, painted black slippers. Original dress with white cotton underskirt and pale blue over skirt. Blue sun bonnet with original pink and blue millinery flowers. Pantalets beneath the dress. Fastened with the usual brass safety pin typical of dolls made prior to the 1950s. She’s just darling. No box or tag. Identified through Elaine Pardee's Encyclopedia of Bisque Nancy Ann Storybook Dolls, page 110. See photos. Doll is cleaned, arms restrung. Dress is cleaned and pressed. The toe of her shoe was broken off, so we repaired it. See photos. I have been restoring dolls. Take a look at the many other Nancy Ann Dolls I have for sale. I do combine shipping. Nancy Ann Storybook Dolls were created by Nancy Ann Abbott, with bisque dolls made in the late 1930s through the mid 1940s when plastic dolls were introduced. The bisque dolls with bisque arms are the older than those with plastic arms, so this doll is likely from the mid 1940s. Due to the dolls' age, they are fragile, and the fabric may be imperfect. However I make sure to note any flaws I see, as well as any repairs I have made.
