Still working on Schoenhut dolls....

This doll came with her brother to get a cleaning and few touchups.









She really isn't in too bad shape but she will get a bit of work done on her mouth.








She has some odd wood issues on her body.

Here is one shoulder.





Here is one hip.


It looks like some previous wood damge has been addressed by some sort of filler that did not do well with time?


These areas are dry and stable. They can be covered easily by clothes so they will not be touched.



This leg could use a good cleaning!







After a cleaning she is minus a lot of grime.

She lost the crumbling, yellowed varnish on her torso in the process.
