An adorable, rare wax head baby in bunting candy container with dark blue inset glass eyes. There is a little bit of blonde hair on the top of the baby's head and the baby is wrapped in stiff net lace. There is a pink ribbon running down the front of the bunting and embossed paper wraps around the back. It still retains its original red ribbon for hanging in the tree. The candy container insert is made from cardboard and the baby's head lifts off for candy retrieval. There are a few light smudges on the baby's face but does not detract from its charm. Overall, in excellent condition. Additional photos are attached by the magnifying glass icon.
