I will try to give as much detail without getting mentioning for sale, appraisals.
The boy doll made by Bing (stamped on the bottom of his boots, therefore I thought it was German) has brown hair, composition as far back as the ears and it appears cloth in the back of the head
He has red checks and lips, cloth rest of body, arms and legs, white socks, red boots and black shoestrings
He has a white tunic with rings of green and red on chest, Red String round his waste and red piping on bottom of tunic
He has white shorts just below the knee
An antique store said they thought it was from the 1910's. It belonged to my aunt and she was born in 1919
Bing Art Doll that was manufactured in Nurnberg, Germany, circa 1922-1932
Here is link to history of company . Some say they tried to copy Kathy Kruse type dolls . They went bankrupt in 1932 .
