Vintage Strawberry Shortcake Lem And Ada Dolls And Sugarwoofer Pet
Item History & Price
This is vintage Lem and Ada with pet c. 1980s. Doll is "loose", meaning played with vintage toys. These dolls are dressed correctly. The bibs and the hats to these particular dolls always look a little dingy to me, and I would say these are okay examples. The elastic on Lem's hat is stretched and tied. I started buying and selling Shortcakes in order to complete a collection for my daughter over 10 yearsago. In the process, I became obsessedwith these... little dolls from my childhood. I have amassed quite a collection and now I like to buy and resell themin order to save these dolls for future generations. There are just no contemporary dolls thatcompare! Most of the dolls that I buyneed TLC. I give them that by cleaningthem, hand washing the clothes, shoes and pets. I check them for VD spots and try to put each doll back closest tooriginal specs whenever I can. But, unless specified as "mint", then doll is considered a loose, playedwith vintage toy. Please expect some amount of wear and use. Withthat said, I spend a lot of time cleaning dolls and clothes to put sets backtogether. I throw out anything that has vinyl deterioration on thefaces. I do not always throw out a body or head that has a contained spotin a hidden area (legs, under the hair, feet). The vinyl deterioration is not contagious and will not spread as long asthe dolls are stored properly- ventilated when in high humidity environments orstored with desiccant. I throw out anyclothes that are really stained or ripped. Each doll may have minorvariations, color discolorations, marks or factory production defects that Icannot control. If the doll is listed then I feel that it is a good loosespecimen, appropriate for any collection or for play. Please do not ask me about scent as thesedolls are over 30 years old and have been handled and washed, besides the factthat smell is subjective and is probably not going to smell as you remember it, sadly. Dolls, clothes, pets and shoes are now selling for outrageous prices, therefore my prices have gone up to cover my costs and make a smallprofit. If you buy an uncleaned doll, you will recognize the difference.

An open case does not affect your buyer ratings aslong as you pay within the appropriate time frames. Toy and lead paint warnings… AnythingI sell is not to be eaten. These items are meant to be collectibleitems. They have not been tested for lead paint according to myknowledge, so don’t let children or pregnant women eat them. I havenot had any problems with this personally, but so many sellers have this typeof disclaimer that I thought it is probably a good idea to stress these pointsbecause the government and lawyers think we are all morons and I don’t need tobe sued.
