Daddy’s Long Legs updated

The Daddy’s Long Legs installation, originally installed on July 7, 2021, has been updated to include Nurse Garnett:

Nurse Garnett DL32C, released in July 1992, retired on September 30, 1993, and is approximately 24 inches tall. Nurse Garnett has black sculpted hair, brown-painted eyes, and a closed smiling mouth. This doll uses the same head sculpt as Sister Mary Kathleen. The vintage nurse’s uniform includes a white cap with a centered red cross, a white dress, a navy-blue red-lined cape, and white undergarments. The sculpted black lace-up shoes are molded on. Marks (on the right leg): DLL ©1991. This doll was originally purchased from an official Daddy’s Long Legs dealer and later sold to an avid nurse doll collector.
