I cannot seem to find any info on this doll with its current serial numbers! I can clearly see 34_ 8. There is a small hole preventing me to make out what number or letter or / that would complete the serial number or part number! The doll is 22" tall eyes are blue. The arms and legs are movable joints. Hands are just Bisque and transition into a hard cloth material. We have a bonnet another dress diaper and safety pins attached! We believe there is a squeaker but it's not functional if it is. We have tried to find the part numbers but cannot seem to find it! Any help is appreciated!
Wonderful Armand "Dream Baby" mold 341 . Very nice large size . It was a very popular doll during it;s years of production around 1920's .
The body is correct for her and the other number is just a factory size number and has no meaning other than for workers to put right head with right body .
Example . This is smaller and they use 341/4 while your's says another size number behind 341 . Do not use this as what it will sell for as this is just the sellers opinion.

Hey thanks for taking time to respond really appreciate it. So ours has movable joints for the arms and legs. Any thought on what model this could be?
It is just a 341 Mold they have no model number , she has composition hands and cloth body how it should be so not sure what your asking . Some did come on full composition body but yours is cloth they did both body types .
The arms and legs are not stitched on rather a rotating joint.
Sry it will not allow me to upload anymore pictures
You can go to edit and remove last 2 photo's and replace them ok and strip her completely nude for the pics .
Great I added two more photos! The clothes are stitched on good I'm afraid to take the clothes all the way off. But thats the leg/hip area that's different from ones I have sen with the mold 341 mold I have not seen one with the 8 at the end. Again thank you for your help
The body is correct they did not make them all exactly same . Here is one marked like yours 341/8 with your body .

Let me correct myself the one with last link is with the composition head which they also did but used same mold to pour liquid composition in.
Great thanks again for all your help! Very interesting history these dolls have!
Your mystery is solved so can you make it solved .
No problem
