There is a new item up for bid on eBay that has a few problems. No disrespect to the artist, whom I am sure was trying to do her best—but the creator of this Lizzie Borden doll apparently used a photo to help her detail the face that is not Lizzie Borden, but the now infamous “man-hands” Lizzie. It is a shame that she created it from this photo, especially since the artist is asking for a starting bid of $750 for her work.
She did a very good job of reproducing the face in the photo. Too bad the face is not that of Lizzie Borden. Lizzie’s nose is much more narrow and petite.
