Description

This is "Gertrude" from the Nana's Family doll series by Richard Simmons, designed and sculpted by artist Annie Wahl. Richard Simmons developed a passion for collecting fine art and objects, including handcrafted dolls, after much of his previous collection was lost in the 1994 Northridge earthquake. A gifted artist doll reignited his interest, leading to the creation of the Nana's Family series, which includes uniquely designed characters like Gertrude. The doll measures 10.25 inches tall and is in new condition. It comes with a certificate of authenticity.
