FREDDY

Freddy is a Lynne and Michael Roche doll , 17 inches tall and with a full wooden body and the usual porcelain head and hands.

He is wearing his original clothing but not wig. His seller said the wig had gone vey brittle and so she replaced it.

I will look to see if I can find a better fitting wig for him, he does also have an issue with his neck, in that his head does not move. So I will see if that’s fixable.

I always like to add at least one boy, if available , to any doll collection/group I own. Sometime I cannot if no boy available or the boys just don not appeal.

Lynne and Michael do not have many boys in their collection but they are all nice looking. Freddy here reminds me of the older style antique dolls that Lynne Roche used to make reproductions of in her early days before deciding to make her own designs.

I think he’s got that toddler . young child look to him. Still with that little chubby cheeked look and peaches and cream skin.

So Freddy is the last for a while to join the Roche family of dolls, but you never know just who may come along so never say never .
