Madame Alexander restrung 8" Algeria doll. Eyes open and close easily. Madame Alexander dolls are held together with rubber bands. Over the years the bands become stretched or brittle. Don't risk buying a doll that isn't restrung, even ones that appear to be new in the box. Bands may become floppy or break in shipping. All of my dolls have strong and tight bands. I also restring Madame Alexander dolls. If you have a Madame Alexander doll that needs restringing, please message me. I have over 150 dolls and get more all the time. I can combine shipping if you let me know what other MA dolls that you want.
