12" Bisque Hd Ball Jointed Doll Charming Dress Mold 50

This cute doll is dressed for a Victorian Christmas party.  She is a bisque head doll with blue sleep eyes, open mouth with teeth and a dimple in her chin.  Her mold number is 50 with 3/0 after that, and Made in Germany below.  There is a strange applied mark below that.  I cannot read it as there is a repair to the neck opening.  There is a lot of heavy glue where the original wig had been, but I still cannot see any hairlines.  My camera does not do well with contrasting colors so I have taken pictures with the dress removed so you can see a better picture of the doll.  There is also a picture of just the wig to give you a better idea of the color.  She is a dark blond or light brown. 

She has an interesting ball jointed body.  The upper legs are not the usual design.  The top of the legs are flat and fit against the side of the leg openings on the torso.  The person who fixed up the doll put the top sections on the wrong sides.  A close up picture shows the upper portions of the dolls legs, both front and back, so you can see how they look.  I am not going to have her restrung as it is not much of a problem, but if someone does have her restrung, it is just the upper sections that need to be switched.  There is a crack in the finish on her foot and the hands and lower legs look as though someone washed them, but the red lines are still there.

She is wearing a newer outfit in a navy blue taffeta plain with a deep red velvet sash with a bustle effect in the back.  The dress has a pleated ruffle below the sash.  The petticoat has ribbons and eyelet ruffles and has a label that reads "Designed and Made by Connie Brekke New York".  That is just on the petticoat, but she may have also designed this cute dress.  She has long navy blue stockings, but no shoes.

***  I just added two pictures at the end showing the repair to the dolls neck.  The color on this is not very good.  The white is the repair.  Contrasting colors are difficult and the bisque portion looks a bit too rose color and the white is actually ivory color.  It was a bit tricky to photograph as I had to pull the socket head away from the torso to get this to show correctly.  ***
