<p>[QUOTE="Darkwing Manor, post: 4264279, member: 738"]It looks like some sort of bloom from the plastic deteriorating. Since this is an inherent chemical reaction, I hesitate to recommend a treatment. It wouldn't hurt to wipe it off with a mild detergent mix, dry well and store the doll in acid-free tissue, in a dry environment with a stable room temperature. I'd recommend frequent monitoring to see if it returns. I don't think the doll's market value justifies consulting a conservator, but that is an individual choice.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
