This is an antique doll from 1904
She has a date written in pencil on the bottom of her foot of 8/20/4
She is marked on her head B 1001
BE (inside a symbol)
Made in Nippon
(number)
The 1001 mold number has been attributed to Heinrich Handwerck but I believe this doll was made in Japan due to the Nippon mark
The doll measures 21\" tall with a 10 1/2\" head circumference, and is on her original body, with is a very heavy duty composition that almost feels like bisque, and is ball jointed
The doll has no damage to her head -- no chips, cracks, hairlines or repairs -- and has her original brown sleep eyes and an open mouth with four teeth, with original mohair wig that is a beautiful chestnut brown with an auburn tint
Her body has some cracks and chipping of the compo at the joints and it does need restringing (arms and legs still pose okay, legs are loose) but has no missing fingers or toes
The doll comes nude, without any clothing
With a little TLC and an antique outfit, this would be a stunning doll for your collection
She is fresh and clean, with no odors, and comes from a smoke-free home
This doll weighs about 3 1/2 lbs. unpacked, so her shipping weight will be in the 5-6 lb. range
