Ideal Doll (Possibly Type P-90)

This is a vintage Ideal doll, likely dating from the mid-20th century, possibly a P-90 type given its facial characteristics and hair styling. The doll has a hard plastic head, arms, and legs, with a composition or hard plastic torso. Her skin tone is a light peach or flesh color, with rouged cheeks displaying a vibrant pink hue. Her mouth is open with painted red lips and what appear to be molded teeth visible. She has sleep eyes that are in a fixed open position, with visible painted eyelashes and defined brows. Her hair is styled in two brown braids, one visible on the right side of her head. The hair appears to be saran or synthetic, characteristic of dolls from the 1950s or 60s. The doll is wearing a simple white short-sleeved dress with eyelet or embroidered detailing on the skirt, which appears to be a basic, possibly original or period-accurate, undergarment or play dress. There are visible signs of wear, particularly on the face where there's some loss of blush and potentially scuffs, though the image quality makes precise assessment difficult. The doll's shoes are not visible, but her feet are showing, resting on what appear to be small, light-colored blocks or parts of a stand. The craftsmanship suggests mass production typical of a major American doll manufacturer like Ideal, known for durable and popular play dolls. The overall condition indicates moderate playwear and age.
