Uneeda Dew Drop Doll late 1950s to early 1960s

Poor doll. Put into a hot dusty attic under SOMETHING and was smushed. So now the job of trying to reshape her head and body. She is 21" tall with green sleep eyes. She can wear infant clothing and is a drink and wet doll. 

She cleaned up really nicely... but oh the gymnastics to get that head off.  Using a hair dryer to warm and try to slowly remold it to how it should be.  Believe it or not...the head is painted. I would like to know what kind of paint they used on that vinyl that sticks so well after all these years... the color is beautiful!...
Still did not get the head rounded out, but it is better then it was. She actually looks cute now. Those are real baby clothes she is wearing.
