Question by Joan K: Does anyone know anything about the markings on vintage dolls?
I have a doll from my childhood.I grew up in the ’50s. I thought it was an IDEAL-BETSY WETSY. She’s a 12″ doll. Hard plastic head & vinyl body. The markings on the back of her head read… … Pat no. 2675844 E. CHARACTER
Does anyone know if she is an ‘Ideal- Betsy Wetsy’ or what?

Answer by DR + Mrs Bears faceThey look like common toys of the time.
I was born later than the 40s but had dolls like this passed onto me by older cousins. I didn’t like them very much. They were shaped like babies so you couldn’t make them nice clothes only baby clothes.
I preferred the later teenage dolls.

Question by : How much is my porcelain antique doll worth?
I have my late aunt’s antique doll. It has movable limbs and head and the body is composite with a porcelain face and head. She has pierced ears, real eyelashes, and brown eyes that open and shut. She also has teeth. It is about 36″ tall and the back of the neck reads: Simon & Halbig S&H 15. Under her blonde, curly wig reads: Germany 1078. It is circa early, like early 1900s. Am not 100% sure if I want to keep this doll as a keepsake or sell it. But am curious as to how much it is worth.
Thank you!
