Email from David Simpich a few years ago stated:Your Bob Cratchit is very rare. This is an 1950\' s version similar to the first one that belonged to my grandmother (it is now displayed in our museum). my parents did not make too many that looked like this before it was redesigned. If we were to receive one to place in our consignment shop, I would not want to price it at less than $700. to $800...
Please note the charming detail and handwork that went into this one-of-a-kind doll -- both Bob\'s and Tiny Tim\'s shoes are real suede; Tiny pin head sized buttons are handsewn, as are all of the clothing pieces. The figures are lovingly dressed in all natural fiber garments -- felt overcoat, wool knit trousers, fringed wool scarf, cotton knit stockings, and with merrily hand-painted faces and detailed hands that include fingernails (Tiny Tim wears felt mittens) -- a remarkable attention to detail that will likely never be seen again.There is a small chip that has been painted over on the underside of Bob\'s nose and one hand has paint repairs as wellEarly original label denoting Manitou Springs as the company location.This is a truly once-in-a lifetime chance to acquire this rare doll!PLEASE CLICK ON MY OTHER LISTINGS FOR MORE THINGS YOU WILL LIKELY LOVE -- THANK !YOU
