    Bought these dolls at a sale this weekend. Was hoping someone could shed light on their age and history. One might be Prussian. The other looks like he was styled to be Chinese.

      These are very cool cloth dolls . I can't tell who they are dressed like perhaps Military experts will see what uniforms are . Your dolls are early 1900
      Lithograph Printed Dolls were sold by as doll print ,taken home,cut,sewn and stuffed. The pattern was printed on fabric and you cut them out and stuffed . The cotton I see from what I can tell in your dolls looks like it is raw making them perhaps in the south . Are you in USA ? The earliest Lithograph print dolls I am aware were in early 1900's . Love them and wish they could tell us their story .
