This is the best doll in my collection. She is the Sunday Best depicted in the 1998 Izen and Stover Collector\'s Encyclopedia of Vogue Dolls. Not just the same type doll, this is THE very Sunday Best you see there on page 89. I bought her from the person who purchased her at sale when the Fukushima collection was sold years ago. You can see under the photo in the Pink Book, that the Sunday Best pictured there was owned by M. Fukushima.

When I first saw her photo, I felt that this was the doll I would love to collect but didn\'t really expect to find her on . I bought her several years ago. I have to downsize now as I am not getting any younger and don\'t have any female heirs who would appreciate her or know what to do with my Ginny collection. So I will be selling it here over the next month in case anyone wants some nice gifts for their doll collector relatives and friends. I also have another model from the pink book with a letter from her owner. I have a Coronation Ginny with the original gold box and cellophane cover. So watch my sales. I also have some affordable girls and lots of clothing. I have hats and shoes galore.

Condition: Sunday Best is in the same condition as when I acquired her on . The dress is pristine and so is the hat.

Bloomers elastic is loose and you can see them drooping in the pink book photo.

Flowers are age darkened with a little color left.

Center snap shoes are in very good condition and look unused.

The box lid is torn at the top. The label on the box side is lifting up. The color of the box is dull. Thecardboard holder for Sunday Best was not in the box.

Excellent eyelashes are all there and no green.

Wig is perfect.

Eyes are dark bluetwo tone.

Fever cheeks.

So I paid a lot of money for Sunday Best on . I would like to recoup my investment so I am asking what I paid for her. She sold foralmost three thousand dollars at the Fukushima sale but I didn\'t pay that as you can see.

I will take a return though I don\'t like the idea of shipping a pristine doll back and forth so please be sure you want her and can afford her and look at her closely. I can send any additional photos and answer any questions.

Shipping will be Priority Mail, packed securely and I will insure her for full value which means you will have to sign for her somewhere either at your home or the post office. There has not been another one offered for sale that I know of all these years so don\'t miss out as she may be the one and only.

Happy offerding!
