Summary
A bisque doll by Kammer and Reinhardt in the costume of a schoolboy. He has moulded and painted facial features, the mouth slightly open showing two top teeth. He has brown glass eyes and real brown hair. He has a moulded body and limbs, the arms jointed at shoulder and elbow and the legs swivelling at the hips. He wears a grey flannel cap in four sections with a peak and a matching cloth-covered button on top, and a matching pair of breeches with shoulder straps attached to grey plastic buttons at the front and back. Under this is a polyester-cotton shirt, white with blue and black pin-stripes. He wears black knitted socks and real leather black boots with leather soles. The boots fasten up the outer side with four imitation pearl buttons. He carries a brown plastic satchel containing an exercise book with a pink cover with 'Exercise Book, Glenton House School' written on it. Its pages are blank. The satchel also contains two tiny pencils, striped blue and gold, with real graphite lead in them.
