HER VIDEO

The "Early Issue" Saucy Walkers in 1951 had a rod from the head on through the torso. You can tell if your doll is a Rod Saucy Walker Doll if her head gently wobbles from side to side and her head only turns when her legs take a step.  We believe Ideal only made this type doll for one year and then switched to the head being strung with a large elastic band instead.  They also changed the neck plate and the wigs. This Saucy Walker's hair was not cut by a child. The "Early Issue" dolls were made better than the later dolls, better wigs, the heads did not come off easily and the paint on the plastic was more of a satin than the shiny. Ideal also started to sell the Saucy Walker later in vinyl "Embossed Bow" shoes. Our satin paint is special blended to match the early issue Saucy Walker Dolls.  
DESCRIPTION

What a charming Early Issue Saucy Walker.  It is rare to find one this clean and when we do,  we enjoy making her even more perfect for display.  Their heads are attached with a metal rod so one does not need to worry about the head coming off on this one.  I am always amazed with their bodies because of the satin color that they have.   We decided to Air Brush her torso, arms, and legs with our special blended satin Saucy Walker paint blended especially for this age doll. She had a tiny shoulder crack and Dr. Hubby took care of that very well. He also blushed her knees and added a bit more blushing to her cheeks.  The eye shadow is original and the lips and of course the eyebrows are all original.

Her dress is an extremely close replica of the dresses these dolls were sold in.  It was made by Lois at: Toni Wear and we feel there is no better than her for creating our replica dresses.  The dress has anattached slip as most Saucy Walker Dresses from Ideal had.  Although this Early Issue mostly came in panties to start off the line of dolls in 1951, we have added a replica Onesie, also made by Lois.

The shoes were custom made by Michele with This Old Doll. I do not know of another online, as a result of my searching, that can make shoes as perfectly as Michele. They are leather and are a close resemblance of the earlier Ideal Saucy Walker Dolls.  They also came with shoes that tied and she has made those for us as well.

Her eyes have been repaired and polished and move from side to side as you lean her.  We have installed platforms in her head to prevent the eyes from rolling or sinking.  Once the doll leaves the shop here, we are not responsible for that claim as we will have no way of knowing how she will be handled and if she will be dropped or not. We have dropped a few on their heads long ago and the eyes suffered no harm.

She walks like a brand new doll (Dr. Hubby always makes them like new.) and her arms are very tight with our elastic cord tubing and you merely hold her hand to walk her.  Lean her from side to side to walk her as she was designed that way.  Her head turns with every step.

Feel free to contact us about her and God Bless.
