I got this many years ago at an outdoor flea market. I am glad that I did because they are very hard to find now. I think that she looks a lot like Gloria Swanson. She has glass eyes and some actual eyelashes left
Oh, she is wonderful!
Very cool! About how old is she?
Thanks for the comments. I was VERY young when I got her and she never aged....
Thanks for asking because I made a mistake in the title...early 1920s
I have a full bodied manikin, not real old but still, if I have her in a new spot, everytime I pass her it startles me...I couldn't imagine having yours ;)
Manikin will like to see this one.
Oh katherin I was thinking the same ;)
You can compare her with the photos from my post with an old article about Gloria.

I am really enjoying all the comments! Thank you so much. Elisabethan, thanks for the link!!!
I'm glad you liked it vintagelamp. It's night here now so I'll look in here again in your collection another time :)
Thank you! Appreciate the visits!!!
Great minds, Virginia. ;)
More 20's than silent film star, no disrespect to Gloria, but the mannequin is prettier.
PhilDMorris, Your comment is so similar to one a friend in NY made about this mannequin :). He stated that it was better looking than Gloria also. Thank you!
Looks in great shape and overall beautiful.
dlpetersen, Many thanks!!!
