Description: This 15" doll is a rare find from Freundlich Novelty Corp. and represents a piece of history - specifically, the US Military WAAC Womens Auxiliary during World War II. The doll has wavy brown hair and blue eyes with a light complexion, and comes with her original uniform (missing WAAC patch). History: In 1917, during World War I, the British Army established the first Womens Auxiliary Army Corps. The women served as clerks, cooks or waitresses. They also held other service jobs, replacing male soldiers who were needed at the front. A few dolls representing WACS were made during the war years. The dolls were made with the appropriate short hair, adult features and authentic replicas of WAC dress uniforms, including a hat and necktie. The best-known WAC doll was made by Freundlich Novelty Co. of New York in the early 1940s. (LLJworld.com) This vintage doll is an adult collector's item and is in great condition.
