Lady Acrobats

The Lady Acrobats
The Lady Acrobat was made in a bisque head (same as the Lady Rider) and a one-part head. It seems plausible that a composition head Lady Acrobat was made using the heads of the early composition Lady Riders, but none have been seen.
(Need photo) Composition head Lady Acrobat This design may exist but we haven't seen one. Is there one in your collection?

Early ones were made with gold tone rickrack and gold paste decorations on the front of her suit. Sometimes the legs were painted red to simulate leggings.

Due to hand painting, the face features can vary quite a bit from sample to sample.
