    I picked this fellow up at an antique store a few months back. For some reason he spoke to me at the time as a good purchase, but now I find him just a little unsettling. He has a soft plastic head, cloth body, and composition hands. Perhaps he was cobbled together from pieces of other dolls?

    Friends and family say he looks familiar, but none of us can place him. Does any know who this doll might depict?

      Manikin nailed it. It's a Pinky Lee without his coat.

      Thanks, everyone! Pinky Lee it is. So glad to know more of his history. Mystery solved! ...other than the mystery of how he lost his clothes :)
