Franklin Mint Josephine The Gibson Girl 16in Vinyl Portrait Doll withBox

Franklin Mint Josephine The Gibson Girl 16in Vinyl Portrait Retired Doll w/Box. Josephine, Memoirs of the Original Gibson Girl, Opening Night at the Opera in London is exquisite and won the 2000 DOTY Industry Choice award! Re-live the romance and charm of turn-of-the-century elegance brought to life in this fully poseable vinyl collector's doll.

Josephine, the loveliest young debutante ever to appear in London society at the turn of the century, is in a stunning Victorian-style gown. It is sewn of luxurious rose charmeuse with black chiffon and accents of gossamer tulle, organza rosettes and golden cording. A work of millinery magic complements her aristocratic features, and period-style necklace and earrings. Inspired by Charles Dana Gibson's beloved sister, Jospehine, she is authorized by the legendary artist's great-granddaughter Dana Gibson. The doll was previously displayed only in my retail shop in a glass curio cabinet. She comes in her original box but there is no paperwork and the purse is missing.
