This rare 1920s Grace S. Putnam Bye-Lo Baby is lightly marked on back of neck and difficult to see.“Copr by GS Putnam, Made in USA.” *Notice the name ‘Grace’ is not spelled out, which is quite rare, and no mention of being Made in Germany, so I believe this was made prior to German manufacturing. (The second line: “Made in USA” is hidden by the cloth neckline, but if you pull back on the material, although difficult, you can see it. I don’t know if anything is marked below that.) Information found online:Designed by Grace S. Putnam and made by J. D. Kestner for George Borgfeldt & Company, New York City, New York. California-born Grace Storey Putnam (1877-1947) was divorced and trying to earn some money when she started designing doll’s heads. In 1922, she copyrighted (“copr”) a plaster doll’s head designed to look like the head of a 3-day-old infant. Within a couple of years, the doll, called “Bye-Lo Baby,” went into production with a stock cloth body. MORE INFO ON THIS DOLL BABY:*I think the head is made of composition, but it feels and sounds like plaster when tapped with my fingernail. I am not an expert in this area.*Blue glass sleep eyes, still working*Painted upper and lower eyelashes, rosy cheeks, and rosy back of hands*Closed painted mouth and nostrils*Lightly molded painted hair*Stuffed linen cloth body “frog leg” style*Arms are hand-stitched to the body*Celluloid hands without any breaks, possible small crack under fingers on one hand, but it could be just a cease from manufacturing.*The silk baby doll dress has 2 tiny buttons at the back, is all hand sewn except for the hem and ribbon/lace trim which is machine sewn.*The slip feels more like a soft satin material, and the ribbon/lace trim matches the trim on the dress. The slip is machine sewn with little snaps on the back*Hand sewn silk dress,*13″ long*Voice box fitted into the back of the torso, which doesn’t work anymore.*Clothing is yellowed from age and includes a silk dress, a satin slip, a sweater, a bonnet, a pair of panties, a pair of cotton socks, and lace booties with ribbon ties. This is in Very Good Overall Condition. No breakage to the hands, fingers, or head. There is fine crackling to the head, but not in the face. There is discoloration to the material, and/or spotting; a couple of small holes in the linen body. I have not washed any of the clothing, and they will be folded and bagged with doll. Note: I have 4 different dolls from the 1920 era that I am putting online. If interested, please see my other items. Shipping: Buyer may choose USPS Priority Mail or USPS Ground Advantage. Local pickup is available near Tucson, Arizona.
