    20201228_164730-1.jpg Any info on this doll would be much appreciated. I'm not sure if it's even a vintage or antique doll. Thank you very much!

    He looks like Captain Kangaroo.
    Does he have any marks?

    I don't know who, but Vintage at best.......not Antique.

    Any markings on the back of the neck, back, or feet?

    Reminds me of a bartending figure that was popular some years ago. I'll see if I can google one.

    I don't think the clothes on your doll look to be the original.

    The shirt looks to be home made, and the pants are too long.

    It looks as if the shoes are removable? Check the feet, if so.

    My first thought was Samuel Clemens or Mark Twain.

    I really don't think he's old at all. And I do think those are his original clothes.
    Come on, where did you get him? :)
