Description: Vintage 80s Madame Alexander 17" Elise Ballerina #1650 (1984-85) Blonde17" vinyl (face) and plastic (body) doll with brown hair, and brown sleep eyes. Crown of pink flowers, necklace of rhinestones. Pink tule tutu, with neckline accented with gathered tulle and flowers on left shoulder. Pink taffeta bodice. Rhinestone and floral accents, and a pink satin ribbon at waist. Pink hose and ballet slippers. Wonderful, preloved condition. My mother purchased her in Tysons Corner, VA, in 1998. I have tried to show areas where there may be some discoloration of clothes and/or limbs. Comes complete with hang tag and original box. She appears in a picture on p. 107 of Madame Alexander Dolls, 1965-1990 by Smith; on p. 12 of the 1985 Madame Alexander Catalogue; and on p. 12 in the 1984 Madame Alexander Catalogue.It's time to downsize! All items come from either my mother's extensive doll collection, my own, or that of my sister and good friend. All of the items have been stored carefully in a climate-controlled, non-smoking, pet-friendly home. There may be signs of wear on boxes from storage. I am a private seller trying to downsize, not a big box store or seller, so I will only accept returns at buyer expense! Please ask any questions you may have prior to bidding. We want you to be happy with your doll!Please note that vintage items may exhibit some challenges: The glue on the shoes may need your attention depending on the age of the doll, as drying over time has caused some of the shoe pieces to come apart. Faux leather may flake off. Strung dolls may have internal rubber bands that are in the process of decay. Most dolls have never been undressed, so there may be staining on the vinyl, in particular, with red or black clothing. Unless otherwise noted (and I try to be as upfront about issues I see as possible), at the time of shipping all parts to dolls are present, but many of these dolls have not been displayed in years nor ever undressed, so please be aware when removing dolls for the first time. These are vintage items, after all. I appreciate your understanding when you buy second-hand and save items from landfills.Shipping Selection. I offer expedited (priority mail) and regular (ground advantage) shipping through USPS in the United States. Please make the selection you most prefer when paying at the end of the auction. I will use what you select, assuming you have a timeline for receipt of the item. I want the shipping to be reasonable for you.Combined Shipping. Yes! I am happy to combine shipping on items purchased within five days of each other. Please wait for your bundled invoice to arrive before paying. It’s also great to message me to indicate your intention so that I can be on the lookout.
