Vintage Hard Plastic Baby Doll with Sleep Eyes and Ruffled Dress

This is a vintage hard plastic baby doll, likely from the mid-20th century, possibly dating to the 1940s or 1950s. The doll measures approximately 6-8 inches in height, judging by its scale in the hand. It features a hard plastic or composition head and possibly body, with a molded, somewhat stylized face. The doll's eyes are a notable feature; they are 'sleep eyes' in an almond shape, which appear to be closed or cast downwards, giving it a demure or sleepy expression. The eye coloring is a dark brown or black, with delicate painted eyelashes and eyebrows above. The lips are painted a muted red. The doll has molded, light brown or blonde hair, styled with soft curls around the face. It is dressed in a light-colored, possibly beige or cream-colored, sheer fabric dress with multiple ruffled tiers on the skirt and ruffles at the short sleeves. The fabric appears to be an organza or similar light, crisp material, showing some creasing and possibly slight discoloration consistent with age. Underneath the dress, what appear to be original white undergarments or bloomers are visible. The doll is wearing small, off-white cloth booties or shoes, which also show signs of age and possibly some fraying or wear. The overall condition of the doll suggests moderate playwear and age; the dress fabric is somewhat faded and creased, and the hair molding shows some surface wear. There are no obvious severe cracks or breaks visible on the hard plastic parts from this image, though closer inspection would be needed to confirm. The craftsmanship appears typical of mass-produced dolls from its believed era, with painted features and rooted or molded hair. The doll possesses a classic, innocent aesthetic, characteristic of dolls from the post-war period.
