    This is a Jantzen Swimwear countertop advertising display circa 1940s used to display swimsuits of the era. She was in pretty rough shape. Hair was formed out of a strawlike sustance, and was seafoam green with sparkles. I took her in and restored her with some body work, and new paint for a second life. Nice historical advertising piece.

      How tall is she ? Is she a full body ? Does it say Jantzen on her? Wonderful that you saved her and restored for next generation.

      Manikin, no she does not have the Jantzen embossed on her lower left leg, my understanding is the later ones had that but not the early ones. I "believe" she WAS full size, as there is a connector hole in the leg. As she is now, she's about 4 feet tall.
