Up for sale is a nude OOAK blonde Gene Marshall doll, Tomorrow the World, which has been repainted by the fabulous Laurie Leigh of Beautiful faces.
This was formerly a blonde Simply Gene doll.
This spectaculardoll has had her hair completely re-done by Laurie. She has styled it into mounds of tiny curls and pulled a section of it back and included bangs.
Her eyes are a beautiful green with applied lashes.
She has the bent knee style of body.
She was repainted by Laurie in 2001. She will come with her COA signed by the artist.
Laurie Leigh is truly one of the best repaint artists around. Her quality is consistent and her attention to detail amazing. She uses only the highest quality paints which have been sealed for years of enjoyment.
She will be shipped in a generic doll box along with a Gene stand.
Auction is for nude doll only. Outfit and other items shown can be found in our auctions or in our store.
She has been stored in a smoke-free home away from light, and is from my private collection.
A special note to all buyers of our OOAK repaints. Due to the one of a kind nature, and the fact that each artist has her own special technique for various aspects of the creation, (such as hair, eyelashes, and in the case of re-roots and body switches, more or less mobility at the joints).
Please ask all questions of concern before bidding. We try and describe in detail, but cannot always determine what a collector will find undesirable. For instance, one artist may have a tendency to re-root hair in more of a thick, somewhat clumpy manner. We may find this attractive for the style, yet another may find it undesirable. Pictures do not always show up every little artistic addition.
It is our intent to neither deceive nor portray our dolls in any way but honestly. We want you to be happy! We take great pride in our customer service and quality. OOAKs are truly one of a kind, and are not always consistent with the manner in which factory dolls are constructed.
Buyer agrees to pay for auction within 3 days of the auction end.
We do file non-paying bidder forms if an item is not paid within required time. Please respect the fact that by winning the auction you are agreeing to a contract to pay for the item. Please do not bid if you are unable to pay. Thank you for your understanding.
This is part of a major liquidation of a life long doll collection due to an upcoming move. My initial goal was to open a doll museum. I have the most amazing dolls and accessories, many of which will be auctioned through eBay. Keep checking our auctions and store for some amazing opportunities to own some very beautiful and unique collectibles.
