    As added information, this doll fell apart very early on, and her pieces were stored at room temperature for the past 70+ years.  She was very dirty when I received her.  I hope this helps!  Jill

    Please note:  After doing more research in my Terri Lee book by Peggy Casper, this beautiful doll is possibly a very early painted plastic Terri Lee with, of course, a mannequin/wiry type wig used at that time.  This would of been a transitional doll from composition, made for a short time, 1946, and is still rare and keeps her very high value.  And. she is a beauty!  Please bid accordingly.  Thank you,  Jill

    As information, and after checking, the early painted plastic Terri Lee's have a higher blue book value than composition Terri Lee dolls.  Thanks,  Jill
