A 1970s plastic pale skinned male ‘Pippa’ doll. He is possibly Pippa’s boyfriend Pete. The doll has painted on brown hair, blue eyes which are looking forward, pale red lips and brown eyebrows. The doll's limbs are able to bend to enable different poses. The doll is wearing navy blue cotton trousers, which fasten at the front with a press stud, and a red nylon long-sleeved top, with a press stud at the back.
