this is one of the dolls I have from my Grand mothers collection. She had a doll museum in Van Nyse Ca called Anita's Dolls. I am looking for any information about these dolls. If you know where I could start looking I would love the help. Thanks
Oh WOW she is fabulous China and a early one . I need to see back of hair style that is how China's are named and age. Does it have a bun in back . How tall ?
thanks for the help I will post some more pictures. It might be in another post
there is a new Item called "More Details of "Mona Lisa" Doll" with pics of her head and size. thanks again
I need to see better photo of eyes please and also look on her back of neck for marking , It can be hard to tell authentic from repro dolls sometimes by photo. Something about eyes that is making me wonder .
Ok I will watch for them and did you look at neck on bisque doll for markings On back of lower neck area ? I need photo of that also :-)
Look at bottom of china on back for name Clear just a hunch ?
