"A Friend In Need Is a Friend Indeed" by doll artist Mabel Lucie Attwell of England and produced by Ashton-Drake Galleries.
"No matter what brings on his tears, a little boy's sorrow is quick to vanish when his most loyal pal in the whole world to sit at his side, proving that 'A friend in need is a friend indeed!'"
This little boy doll has a porcelain head, arms and legs with a cloth body. His trusty best friend dog is all porcelain. Both are hand painted. A nice handpainted wooden bench is provided for the little boy to sit on and ponder his problems
A mop of wavy blond hair covers his head like a crown and he has brown eyes.
His light blue overalls and knitted jumper are typical children's wear from earlier in this century -- while his oversize sculpted shoes and falling socks enhance his appeal. This is really a cute doll.
The doll is mint in the box with certificate # I 6856A.
