    This unusual antique doll is 30 inches tall. It has a realistic face which makes me think it is Ningyo, however I am no expert. It is bamboo wrapped around wood with real human hair. It was purchased at a Veteran's estate auction. He served in the Pacific during World War Two. I have posted it in several groups and received over 1000 views on Facebook but nobody could tell me what i found.
