    I know nothing about dolls, but this gal seems in pretty good condition. 20"

    What do you think? Help and thank you!

    Thanks @KikoBlueEyes

    But, based on the mark and dimension (and I'm still guessing), this categorization is not clear:

    Mama / Petite (1922–1930s) — line of mother and character dolls varying in size from 12"-24"; also known as "Wonder Baby"

    Wonder Baby? Lol

    All doll descriptions lead to yet more research.

    I can't find your exact doll either on the net, or in my doll books, but if you plan to list her, you will need to undress her and show her body, front and back.

    She appears to have tin eyes. Not sure if the hair is real or not.

    Check for completed prices on ebay........some that are on sale now are asking very high prices, so don't go by those. A few of the character dolls might command a higher price.

    She's in nice condition, but not excellent.

    Tricky to ship as you must protect all surfaces very very well.

    Could be her....different color eyes.

    Entire body would have to be compared.

    We only had 4 days to prepare this sale. No more internet.

    It will all be hauled. Just sad we cant properly research.

    I do think she may be a Sally Joy. All I can do is call it.:(

    Thanks for your help!

    Thanks again! There was really no interest in the dolls...

    It was my roommate's sale, so she'll now have lots of stuff to sell. It was such a short, grueling sale I could not be happier to walk away.

    Does that make me a bad dolly mommy? :(
