    I couldn't pass this up at the thrift shop. She's 7" and taps like plastic. The wardrobe is not junk. The mask and shoes seem to be leather. The hair is painted. As you can see there's a neat point in the center. There's a headband that has been glued on. The coat also seems to be glued on.

    What caught my eye was the bandit/lone ranger mask. I've never seen one on a doll like this. The eyes are closed under the mask. All you can see is the eyelashes which were painted on.

    Any thoughts on it? I did an image search and nothing came up.

    I'd bet it's a skier.

    100% spot on. Doing a search of skier doll, this came up. She's by Carlson.

    She's missing her skies and poles. Though I'm not sure mine would have had them. The shoes on mine are pristine. The skis on that are glued on terribly.

    Thanks for that. Worked like a charm.
