VINTAGE ITEMS
-
Items I list as vintage are sold as is and are normally listed as I find them. I normally do not clean the items unless they are so dirty that the item cannot be seen through the dirt. Please note that vintage items are
"OLD"
and like us will have scars from their life.
VINTAGE RESALE ITEMS
-
These are items not made by SALLY'S CREATIONS.  I describe all my items to the best of my ability and try to take informative pictures.  I do research each item that I list and try to include the information I find.  I enjoy collecting a wide variety of vintage items and learning about the origins of each piece.  Vintage items are pieces from my personal collection or estate finds.
ELECTRONICS
- Items are tested for working condition whenever possible. This is not my usual type of item and I admit to be a little less than "tech savvy" so I will do my best to describe items honestly and with all the information I can gather. Generally items in this category are items we no longer need and not "re-sale items". All electronic items are "As Is".
MEASUREMENTS
-
All measurements are to be considered approximate estimates.  I strive to take accurate measurements, however most items are irregular shaped and difficult to measure.
MULTIPLE SITE LISTING
- This item may be listed for sale at other internet based locations and/or a retail shop.  Item sales will be processed on a
"FIRST PAID"
basis. If you are the winning bidder on an item or place a Buy it Now purchase, it will remain for sale until the item has been paid for.  This is the same policy Ebay has begun using to reduce the unpaid item occurrences on Buy it Now items.
PICTURES:
I HAVE STARTED TAKING PICTURES WITH AND WITHOUT USING A FLASH. This is to show detail and highlight the difference in how a piece looks in different light. You will notice the difference in the pictures as you look at them.  Typically the colors look brighter under flash photography than without a flash and some details stand out better when using a flash.  I hope this change will help better show my items and be helpful to you in determining quality and condition of the item.  If you would like additional pictures or a specific picture of the item please feel free to contact me and I will do my best to oblige.

Jennie June
German Low Brow Style
CHINA DOLL
Beautiful
porcelain head, hands and feet. This doll is not marked but is believed to be a Mark Farmer Jennie June doll.  Hand painted shoes, hair and beautiful face. She is a lovely doll with a heavy muslin body. Her clothing is period for the late 1800s to early 1900s. She is wearing white cotton pantaloons and petticoat. Her dress is a simply stunning crushed red velvet with woven ribbon accent and crocheted ruffles which all appear to be handmade with a mixture of hand stitching and machine stitching. All of her clothing is in very good condition, I am unsure of it's age. The head and shoulder piece is glue on not sew on. (Doll stand not included)
I have updated this listing with new information from a helpful ebay member. I strive to represent my items accurately and honestly. I will always update my items with more accurate information whenever I am aware of something listed inaccurately.
