Vestida de Azul 18 inch Boy

A handsome 18-inch (45 cm) boy by Vestida de Azul joins the collection.

This handsome, new-to-me doll was purchased from another collector. He has a custom short curly brown wig permanently attached to his now-cut rooted brown hair. Made in Europe by Vestida de Azul of Spain, he might have originated as a doll like the one shown here (except the other doll's hair is black and much longer).

His jersey reads "Team USA 23."

I like the shorter wig and the way the previous owner dressed him in a sports outfit and Chuck's-style high-top sneakers.

He needed something to hold. So, I gave him a piece of Dubble Bubble bubble gum.

Made of all rubber-like, sturdy vinyl, he has brown stationary eyes and applied upper eyelashes. A rare 18-inch Black boy doll, the girls in the collection will have to make room for his presence.
