    This doll is 13 1/2" tall. I cannot get the name right. I googled but am not coming close to anything. Doll is not perfect. doll1.JPG doll2.JPG doll3.JPG doll4.JPG doll5.JPG doll8.JPG doll7.JPG

    Isn't he adorable? Try Steha. A German doll company.

    Very cute.
    I know nothing about dolls- does that head belong with that body?

    Hi Kath!

    What is he made of? At first I thought compo, but then again, it looks like a vinyl/rubber, like some of the Berta Hummel Dolls were made of.

    Somehow it just doesn't really look the way compo "cracks".

    Those made of rubber turn very very hard with age. They do not age well.

    Judy doesn't feel or look like rubber or plastic. There is even a few small paint chips here and there.

    You have the doll in hand and can better judge what it's made of. Best of luck with it.
