Description
The Bye-Lo Baby was designed by an American artist, Grace Storey Putnam, and was produced by George Borgfeldt & Co. of New York, which had the bisque heads made in Germany by such well-known porcelain factories as Kestner, Kling, Hertel & Schwab, and Alt, Beck & Gottschalck
The Bye-Lo Baby was the rage of the 1924 Christmas season. Customers waited in line to buy the doll, only to be disappointed when supplies ran out. People were enamored of this new style doll, a newborn baby modeled from a real 3-day-old infant. Putnam felt that such a realistic doll would bring as much joy to a little child mother as a real baby brings to their adult mother. Observing the popularity of this new style doll, other dollmakers immediately jumped into the market with their own newborn baby versions.
This example is complete with bisque head, glass eyes, celluloid hands and a cloth body. Neck marked 1373/30.
