A charming 1920s to 1930s interwar period all-bisque jointed "Penny Doll" or "Flapper Doll," manufactured in Japan. The upper back features an incredibly crisp and deeply incised circular manufacturer symbol directly above the stamped text: "MADE IN JAPAN".This delightful miniature features a molded short-cropped, finger-waved "bob" hairstyle iconic to the 1920s flapper era, along with hand-painted side-glancing googly eyes, fine eyelashes, and a bright red mouth. The arms are separately jointed and remain fully attached via the original internal loop wire stringing, letting them raise and lower smoothly. The torso, head, and straight legs are molded as a single solid piece.
- Dimensions: Approx. 4 inches tall
- Condition Note: Structurally complete and excellent with no chips, hairline cracks, or missing fingers. Left completely in its original, uncleaned estate condition. The white bisque sections show standard dark storage dust and soot that can be gently cleaned if desired, while the original facial paint remains untouched.
