[QUOTE="sassafras, post: 3405082, member: 6320"]Hi Judy! :kiss: They look like German bisque lower arms with compo paint on them. I'm not seeing any fingernail lines that you would see on unaltered hands of this size. Could be a camera trick though. My guess is this lovely girl took a trip to a doll hospital for repairs to her shoulder plate, had finger repairs and her eyes reset. If she's on a cloth body, that would be a replacement too. Clothing was probably made for her at that time. Looks like the things being done in the late 70s to early 80s to me. This dolly was loved very much! Those were not inexpensive things to have done at that time.[/QUOTE]
