"Annalee Mobilitee Dolls are made from a variety of fabrics (most feature wool blend felt). Most are richly decorated with hand-painted faces and feature charming accessories. Most dolls are constructed with a internal wire frame that allows you to bend and pose them just the way you want. Annalee packages most of their dolls in a plastic sleeve instead of a box.
Cleaning and Storage
For dust: Remove with a lint brush, hairbrush, tape, or light vacuuming.
For yellowing of hair or beard: Place a towel under any sections that drape over fabric. Spritz lightly with a cleaner such as 409® or Fantastic® and rub in with a clean towel, until dry.
For soiled fabric: The felt is a wool blend. Try using paste spot treatments made for cleaning wool. The other fabrics are a cotton-poly blend. Try using a mixture of Ivory Snowflakes® and water. Beware: Some fabrics will bleed. Always test the cleaning method on a small area of fabric that is hidden from view. Try to separate the pieces of fabric from other fabric areas by placing a towel underneath.
To store: Consider storing your dolls with moth balls or cedar blocks to deter vermin.
