1987 Samber Big Tooth Samantha Pleasant Company White Body American Girl Doll
1987 "Samber" Big-Tooth Rare Pleasant Company White Body Samantha Vintage 18 American Girl Doll w/ Full Meet. This beautiful, extremely rare vintage doll is from mid-1987, according to experts, and is a highly collectible white body doll, only made in the early years of Pleasant Company, long before Mattel took over American Girl. She has the unique amber eyes and bigger teeth of just a small number of dolls made in 1987. Her meet is all original to her. I'm listing her as TLC condition, primarily due to her arm being chewed up while she was in storage, and she also has a couple small marks on her face near her eyes.
Her hair can be combed and styled, and it's the original wig without a haircut of any kind, but it is a bit dry from age, and could use a full restoration as well. Also, her left eye is sticky and doesn't open/close correctly, but can be gently shut with your finger. It also has a tendency to "fall in" a bit. I have lots of pictures and a video of it I can send you so that you can see exactly what is going on with it. No peeling of decals or cracks that I can see.
When she is standing (like on display), it stays open without any problem, so you'd only ever notice the issue if you lay her down. Her cloth body is clean, no stains. The only marks in her vinyl are the chewed hand and a bit of pink on her other hand.
Her limbs are slightly loose but she can stand unassisted. Her original meet outfit is included: dress, stockings, shoes, brooch, hat, hair ribbon, purse, and handkerchief (I believe the only missing piece is her coin). No stains, rips, or fraying on any of her meet pieces, and her brooch has both pictures inside. The only tag I'm seeing is on her handkerchief, marked 1987 Pleasant Company, made in the Philippines. Please see all pictures for exact cosmetic condition and other details, and ask any questions before purchasing. I have many more pictures available upon request.
