We went to the
ultimate of restoration on this 1950's Saucy
Walkers. Dr. Hubby sealed the seam split and
the crack and there is not trace of either one. She
has been Air Brushed with our satin special Saucy
Blended paint. There is no way she could be
more beautiful. This doll reveals a brand new doll
and walks like a dream.

Took a while but
her hair is finally untangled and preparing for her
shampoo, then a ton of curlers to dry for a full
week. Face cleaned. Then we repair the eyes
and install the preventative platforms to prevent
rolling and sinking of the eyes. You may not
be aware of this...Ideal Toy Corp. used these heads
with this hairstyle on the early issue of the Posie
dolls BEFORE they came up with the Posi vinyl
faces. Someone in the factory instead put this
head on the Saucy Walker straight legged body.
You have a
rare doll here.
See ours below
with bendable knees.

Here to the left is your baby who's eyes have been
repaired and cleaned and who have many many curlers
to make little ringlets like she had when new.
Her hair should keep the curls for a long while if
she is in display only. If she is handled a
lot they could fall loose again after a while and
believe me, curling a wildly Factory made Saucy
Saran wig is no picnic. We let the curlers
stay in for a week or more to stay put longer.
We noticed that if they are taken out earlier, they
fall loose faster. Her hair and hair bow will
be sprayed when styled. We stiffen all bows for
display before they leave here. We will freshen her
shadow (as it has been worn off over the years) a
tiny bit later and her lips will be shined.
Her original dress came out bright and fresh but we
do not do mending as you know ...No biggy because
she will be wearing the new dress you sent with
her.

On The Photos To Enlarge Them) Here
she is with her new eye shadow and new cheek
blushing. No more bad scratches! Photos
always show the cheeks brighter than they are in the
real. The third photo is now her newly Air
Brushed body. Notice no cracks on her little
bottom now? Her knees and the back of her
hands have been newly blushed as well.
"Okay Mommie, when I am all dry in a week you
will see me all finished...I will be back home
soon!!"
