Baby Crissy is a baby version of the grow hair Crissy doll made from 1969 to 1974 by Ideal.
She was originally produced from 1973 to 1977,but was reissued, relatively unchanged,for two years,beginning in 1980.
She's about 24" tall, but has curved baby legs more suited to a sitting position.
 |
| She really can't stand by herself. |
Her legs are not only in the curved,baby leg shape, they are chubby, with chubby baby feet.
She has chubby baby hands to go with them.
She has a really chubby belly and baby boobs.
She has big brown eyes,with rooted eyelashes.
Her growing hair comes out of a hole in the top of her head.
The hair pulls out manually, and can be cranked back in by pulling the ring on a string that is hanging out of her back.
Her hair can be long..
..or short.
 |
| This is the shortest mine will go. |
Or long and up.
There isn't any hair rooted close to the hole where the ponytail part comes out.
Baby Crissy bears a resemblance to Patty Playpal because she was sculpted by the same artist.
There is a page with loads of photos and identification information HERE. The page is by Beth Ellen Colvin, who shares my original last name,(my maiden name,which I still use.),but she's no relation as far as we know!
This isn't her original outfit.
This is a real vintage baby dress she borrowed because she was naked when I got her.
 |
| It was so long on her that I had to fold it under so her baby legs would show. |
That's today's doll.
