Condition:
VNTG 1964 12 inch Dam Iggy Normus troll doll toy in AS IS condition, came to me as a rescue troll:
Vintage
1964 Dam Things Establishment 12 inch Troll Doll Girl Toy in AS IS
condition. She has been personally named Monique and she is ready to
find her forever home. Please be sure to check out all her pictures!
Monique was originally a rescued troll girl doll with some obvious
vinyl issues which will be mentioned why she is an AS IS troll doll in
detail. She came to me in her birthday suit so I felt inspired to dress
her in something splashy and exciting: new filmy and sparkly aqua
colored, ruffle style, gathered dress, layered underneath with matching
aqua tulle and sparkly yellow gathered underskirt. I have added a large,
bright yellow colored satin bow
pinned on top of her head and a yellow rosette attached to top of her
gathered dress, Velcro closure on backside. Unfortunately her turquoise
satin shoes are a bit too small to fit her wide/long troll feet so one
of the shoe laces has been tied into a bow and is hanging from her right
wrist that includes her very own Little Tykes graduate 3.5 inch
Dam/Norfin troll doll tucked inside of the shoe. Her Little Tykes
Dam/Norfin troll has blue fun fur hair and amber plastic eyes that have
become cloudy with time. Her original amber glass eyes had numerous air
bubbles and honestly looked a bit blah with her very pretty turquoise
Icelandic sheep fur and new aqua dress so she has new beautiful replaced blue
glass eyes, no cracks. Monique has her original turquoise Icelandic
sheep fur in very good shape overall, ever so slightly frizzy/fuzzy but
nice and full overall. Monique is in AS IS condition because her
previous owner(s), likely a child who did not know better and (possibly
had too much time on their hands) put noticeable shallow pin size holes
sporadically on her nose, on one of her cheeks, on both of her ears, her
right ear pin hole is pierced slightly a bit deeper right where you
would put an earring), and around and above her eyebrows. Also, there
are several noticeable pin size holes on the front of her body, two on
on her tummy and upper armhole and on both of her hands. There is also a
very noticeable 1/4 inch length, slightly penetrated, raised vinyl
scratch causing slightly discolored mark on the right corner of her
mouth. I have no idea how this occurred by previous owner(s) but it is
best to point it out, see close up pictures. Monique is
stamped, Dam Things Establishment on the back of her neck and the
bottom of her feet, hard American vinyl, jointed head only. She has
airbrushed, rosy cheeks, there are several little noticeable cheek rubs,
overall very nice vinyl coloring. On both sides of her waist where her
armpit is has some very slight vinyl cracks, a very common occurrence
with 50 something vintage Dam Things trolls. There may be some vinyl
discoloration, very minor spots or stains and can be expected after 50
some years. Other
than what has been mentioned, there are no other observable chew marks,
spots or stains that I can see. Monique overall, is in good, but
obvious played with condition with AS IS considerations, she is a 1960s
12 inch Dam Troll Est. troll in her all new party dress, designed to enhance her very best troll features with all her boo boos mentioned and in troll ready display condition. Please feel free to ask any and all questions, I aim to please! I
am always happy to combine shipping! I hope you will consider checking
out my other troll auctions available! Please add me to your favorite
sellers list and thank you again for taking the time to check out my
trolls available on eBay.
BLOGGER'S NOTE: Never have I seen a longer or more detailed description of a troll for sale! She is pushed as a "rescue troll", whatever THAT means (and some of my purchases look to be in need of "rescue"). It goes on and on, continually telling us she is sold "as is" (to avoid possible requests for a refund), and while most listings say very little, or even nothing, this is a kind of masterpiece of selling. BTW, the shipping charges are $55.32, so you'd have to fork over roughly $150.00. Not a bad price for an "Iggy Normous" troll, but there are so many caveats here that I don't think I'd go for it.
I hope someone buys her! But it won't be me.
