DOLLS PRICE GUIDE:  Vintage Dolls

1930s GERMAN CELLULOID DOLL

SIZE: 13"

MARKS: H on head

DATE OF PRODUCTION:  circa 1930s

CHARACTERISTICS OF DOLL:  Doll is all celluloid, with cute toddler body.  Clothes are detailed and completely removeable via snaps; doll has red leather shoes and socks; striped print skirt with trim matching green trim on sleeves.  Hat has black ribbon down back.   Doll has glass sleep eyes.

PRICE:  Not many comparables; in $100 to $150 range in this condition (near mint, all original).  This doll sold for $129 in a doll store in 2003.

COMMENTS:  A nice-quality celluloid doll from an unknown maker.  Dolls with removeable clothing of this sort have higher prices than dolls with sewn-on clothing.  Nice quality to this folklore costume; not all folklore costumes have such good quality, so look carefully before buying.

MARKET REPORT: Celluloid dolls in folklore costumes continue to stagnate, pricewise, with little movement in prices seen in the 3 years since this online price guide was introduced.
