Vintage Composition or Hard Plastic Doll with Braids

This appears to be a vintage doll, likely constructed from composition or hard plastic, dating possibly from the mid-20th century (1940s-1960s). The doll features molded, painted facial features including large, unblinking eyes with prominent black pupils and faint blue irises, painted upper eyelashes, and well-defined eyebrows. The lips are painted a bright red in an open-mouth smile, revealing painted teeth. Distinctive rosy circular blush dots adorn the cheeks. Her hair is a reddish-brown color, styled with short bangs across the forehead and two long, thick braids framing her face and extending down her back. The physical body appears to be fully articulated, though the specific jointing is not clearly visible. She wears a simple, knee-length white dress made of eyelet lace fabric, characterized by small embroidered holes in a floral or geometric pattern, and short puff sleeves. On her feet, she has white ruffled socks and black Mary Jane style shoes with white soles. A thin red necklace or choker is visible around her neck. Notable condition issues include some scuffing and discoloration on her face, particularly on the cheeks and chin, suggesting age and handling. There are also visible dark marks or stains on her left arm. The clothing appears to be in reasonably good condition, though possibly discolored from age. The craftsmanship suggests a commercially produced play doll from the era, rather than a high-end collector's item, but its age and style make it a collectible.
