Very very nice ! The tallest one in 1st photo with long face as we call it and closed mouth is excellent doll ! I would love to know if she is marked and who made her she is German maybe a Kestner but a sought after type doll . Fewer closed mouth were produced and she is not a dolly face has more of a character face , of coarse love all of them from the bisque to peg wooden, the half dolls and the Kewpies . Great post ! Thanks I always enjoy seeing somone's collection . Tell her I think she did well in what she chose !

Mom has a bunch of dolls. She loves miniatures too. I'll post some half dolls. I don't know much about them though.

Patsy Moyer said that the doll has a kid jointed body (leather) with bisque hands. Marks are not noted because her hair is glued down.
11 1/2 inches tall
1900 German
Value is about $650

She looks larger than under a foot ? We generally pull up back of wig gently to see markings IF we need to know and many times they are removed so people can make sure head has no damage . I am guessing Kestner made her . Thanks for additional info you posted . With closed mouth she could date late 1880's :-)
