Bathing Beauty of the Week

A coy cutie, Ms. #470 stands 8.5 inches tall.  She has her original mohair wig and her legs are tinted dark gray to resemble stockings.  This lithe lovely certainly belongs on a pedestal!  By Galluba and Hofmann, such standing sirens are scarce.  Not only were they expensive to make and assemble, their slender legs and slim ankles are weak points, and many of her sisters no doubt broke off of their bases over the past century.  There are no marks.
