    These dolls are from my grandmothers collection, she has passed away and I am just wondering where they all came from and maybe just some background on them, I have looked for stamps or carvings and have had no luck on any of them. They look like they could be old but i honestly have no idea, I have been google-ing all day and just feel more confused
    8-p The last doll in these pictures is pretty cool, her eyes close when you lay her down, I think its called a dolly type face?
    Would appreciate any information, thanks aton

      We refer to her a waldo doll . She is very common to find and has no value she was sold from 70's to 80's . Here is a link that will tell you all about her
      Sorry I could not say she was worth more but they are everywhere and no one is buying them :-( Please watch video it is very good !

      One maybe just a variation of her but these were low quality mass produced dolls and are from very late 70's most likely 1980's. Don't over do yourself as these dolls did not have a name and there value is in that they were your Grandmothers and are important to you and love them because of that :-) They are not antique dolls
      Hope this helps you out and thank you for sharing them

      Pretty little sweeties aren't they...your grandmother must have adored them. I would hang onto them...they may be valuable to pass on in your family!

      Thanks guys, my goal was never to make a profit, my grandmother loved these dolls very much, goal was just to find some information, all my other ones have tags so I knew a little about them to search, these ones just didnt have anything to go on... thanks so much guys for everything!
