I AM OFFERING A NICE OLD CHAD VALLEY CLOTH DOLL, HE HAS AN EARLY CHAD VALLEY BUTTON AND LABEL, AND WEARS HIS ORIGINAL JACKET. AND I BELIEVE HE DATES TO THE 1920’s.
THE DOLL HAS BLACK AND WHITE BUTTON EYES AND PAINTED ON NOSE AND MOUTH FEATURES, A SMALL PART OF HIS LOWER LIP HAS WORN AWAY OVER THE YEARS. HIS FACE IS CLEAN AND IN GOOD CONDITION, AND WITHOUT STAINS.HE STILL HAS A VERY GOOD COVERAGE OF HAIR, MADE FROM BLACK MOHAIR.
HIS BODY IS MADE FROM RED AND YELLOW FABRIC, THERE IS SOME AGE-RELATED DIRT ON HIS YELLOW TOP, BUT OVERALL HIS BODY IS IN VERY CLEAN CONDITION.
THE DOLL ALSO WEARS A SMART DRESS JACKET WHICH IS A SEPARATE ITEM, SO IT CAN BE REMOVED. THE JACKET IS MACHINE STITCHED AND IS A VERY GOOD FIT FOR GOLLIE; I BELIEVE IT IS ORIGINAL TO HIM, AND THAT HE WOULD HAVE BEEN DRESSED IN THIS JACKET WHEN HE LEFT THE CHAD VALLEY FACTORY. THE JACKET IS PALE BLUE WITH YELLOW SLEEVE CUFFS. THE COLOUR HAS FADED TO A GREENY/BLUE OVER THE YEARS, BUT THE ORIGINAL COLOUR CAN BE CLEARLY SEEN ON THE INNER LINING.
OVER HIS CLOTH BODY THE DOLL IS WEARING A PAIR OF WHITE TROUSERS WHICH HAVE PINSTRIPE DETAILING. I’M NOT CERTAIN IF THESE ARE ORIGINAL TO HIM OR A LATER, HOME-MADE ADDITION. THE WAIST BAND IS QUITE LOOSE AND THE SEAMS ARE CLEARLY HAND-STITCHED BY A DIFFERENTLY THAN HIS JACKET.
HIS CHAD VALLEY BUTTON IS LOCATED ON HIS BACK AND HE ALSO HAS A FABRIC CHAD VALLEY LABEL ON HIS RIGHT FOOT. I HAVE ADDED CLOSE UP PICTURES OF BOTH OF THESE.
BEARING IN MIND HIS EARLY, CHAD VALLEY BUTTON, I BELIEVE THIS DEAR OLD CLOTH DOLL DATES TO THE 1920’s
HE MEASURES 16 INCHES TALL.
