Bathing Beauty of the Week

 

 As dainty and delicate as the posies she is picking, Ms. #523 is an exceptional (and exceptionally scarce) bathing belle by William Goebel.  Her original blonde mohair wig in done in the typical Goebel beehive style, with the hank of mohair wrapped around the bald pate and kept in place by two tiny pins, pushed through a curl at each cheek.  The molded pink pumps with contrasting yellow trim are also a standard style for Goebel.  Of the finest bisque and workmanship, she is 4 inches and has no visible marks.
