    Description

    Famous BECASSINE from the girls magazine La Semaine de Suzette.  She cloth and her face and hands are of a beige knit. Her outfit is wool and her cap is white cotton.  She’s large, 24” tall.
    The moth nibbles are small but there is one in the black velvet cuff and one on the bottom of each shoe.  The black velvet is fine, just a little crushed and steam could fix that.  I’m amazed at how nice her face is cause that is usually dirty with rubs and big water marks.  On her blouse are a few light water marks.  Under her red checkered skirt is the tag, Au Nain Blue, a famous store in Paris.
    She’s a great example.
