Vintage Antique Doll Identification Marks and How to Find ThemDue to a huge blunder I am putting my experience to good use.I foolishly thought due to the wonderful condition of a doll that I didn't want to remove her clothing to see any markings that may have been hiding under them. This was a mistake I hope that will not ruin a great listing.Marks can often be found easily and in plain site even on a dressed doll. Others you might need to look under panties, in arm pits, inside thighs and hidden under the hair in back of head.I missed under the undies this time. I caught under the arm pit and on bottom of her foot. Her hair is still in store plastic so didn't even bother trying for hair line.I also foolishly agreed with her box and papers that gave her date and didn't research farther.I have found that my original information may have been right. A GREAT web site for doll reference isDoll Reference Antique To Vintage Dolls 1800 - 1970's - eBay does not permit links, but I am sure you will find your way to the site - this is typed exactly from top of page and if you cut and paste it should take you to it.This site proved that my eyes mayhave beenmore at fault then my listing. My eyes see 1968 date - yet the site states that it is a five and not a six. Check out this site when your looking at dolls to buy or sell. I think you will agree it has Valuable information for any doll collector!Please check YES if you found any information helpful.
