Condition: generally excellent. Marking: EJ.A 10 (head) Jumeau Médaille d'Or Paris (blue stamp body) maker: Emile Jumeau, ca. 1879. size: 68 cm Historical classification: The "E.J.A" model is already demonstrably listed in a Paris toy catalog of 1879 and was offered exclusively in two representative large sizes (sizes 10 and 12) - a remarkable limitation within the assortment of the time. The listed retail price was more than double that of the other Jumeau-Bébés of the time and thus unmistakably documents the prominent position of this model in the luxury segment of Parisian doll production. Based on archival evidence and the extremely small number of known examples, we can assume a very short production phase of probably only two to three years, which further emphasizes the extraordinary rarity and collector's importance of this early Jumeau-Bébé.
