Anyway, she gave it to my daughter years ago, and it only was ever on a shelf.  Baby comes with original Our New Baby diaper, undershirt, and swiss dotted zip-up sleeper, original socks, and plastic shoes.  Also her bath terry blanket.  Please ask me any question.  This doll is for the collector. I will be happy to send, take more pictures, just let me know. We are selling this now to raise money for her ice skating coaching fees.Selling other American Girl things this week, check my other auctions later.  WHAT ELSE CAN I SAY?  This doll is rare and you won't see one again soon..  Buy now for your collection!
