Composition dolls, any info?

Post by Kimiko_binglesbanglesbabies »

I know NOTHING and need help lol!
Here's one girl I'm looking for info on, I was just told she was "old"
Are there any value in them any more? How do I find out about them when there are no markings or info :/ where's a good place to start looking?
HELP!
P.s. She's pretty, isn't she?

Looks a tiny bit like a Suzette by Effanbee. Or Nancy by Arranbee. Their value has really gone down in the last few years, especially unmarked ones. Ive seen some really nice ones like good or excellent condition Dionne quintuplets by Madame Alexander. A set of them can be well over a grand. It really depends on the seller, for instance, on Betsy or eBay, you can find a decent Patsyette for 150 bucks but later find one in equal condition for 1/4 of that so it just depends. I adore compo dolls. ❤ I bought a couple really nice books on compo doll production spanning the 1910's to 40's. I learned quite a bit.

Oh thank you so much! She does look like she might be a Suzette :heart: I think I'll hold onto her for a little while :heart:
I have a few more to identify as well and may bug you for more information later :lol:
