Today we're looking at this little baby.
She's Teeny Weeny Tiny Tears.
She was made by American Character.
Tiny Tears had been around in various forms since 1950. She had previously been available as a much larger doll, in a few different forms: a doll with molded and painted hair, a doll with rooted hair, and a doll with a caracul wig. There was a smaller cersion made called Teeny Tiny Tears.
But apparently, that wasn't small enough. Today's doll, Teeny Weeny Tiny Tears, made her first appearance in 1964. She measures about 9 inches tall.
She came with a bottle and a pacifier. This girl still has her pacifier.
Her little hands are curled in typical baby positions.
And her legs are curved in a sitting baby, or crawling baby posture.
She doesn't have the crying feature that bigger Tiny Tears dolls have. She has no tear ducts. She does have a 'bottle mouth', that accommodates her bottle and pacifier.
Her eyes are sleep eyes, with hard plastic lashes.
In spite of the different companies, she bears a great resemblance to Ideal's Tearier Dearie doll.
That's it for today's doll. Tomorrow, another one.
