AB 159 - Lovely 6 ¼" Kestner?/ S&H? '219'

This doll with the big bright blue paperweight eyes is an unknown to me. Marked '219/10' her face looks like a Kestner with that tiny dimple in her chin, but her shapely legs and shoes with bows on the toes look like Simon & Halbig…maybe she was made for another firm?

Regardless of who made her, her quality is great! She has a swivel neck and her arms and legs are peg jointed. There is a small chip at the top edge of both legs. She has the remains (VERY sparse) of her original wig and cap under her new mohair wig.

She wears a beautifully crocheted dress and hat of soft blue with cream edging…it buttons down the front.

AB 138 - 4" Horsman "SHEbee" with her Original Cloth Bib

This is the smallest size of this adorable character doll…just 4". She miraculously still has her tiny original cloth bib…I'm sure they were taken off and lost immediately as they are very difficult to tie on, even for tiny fingers!

"HEbees" (blue shoes) and "SHEbees" (pink shoes) were designed by Charles Twelvetrees and produced by Horsman in 1925. The 1920s were remarkable for all of the delightful character dolls that were made during that decade. These have a wonderfully simple comic look to them.

The head and torso are molded together…what a face! She has bright blue eyes, a tiny button nose and funny little turned down mouth…fat rosy cheeks! The white molded shift has a squared neckline…impressed "Germany" at the top in back, and "50" at the bottom front between the legs. The arms are precious with the right hand in a fist and the forefinger pointing…the left hand is open. The fat little legs fit into the bottom of the torso and are strung together with the arms. The original yarn bows (shoe laces) have been lost and replaced. There is a miniscule pin prick hole on the top of the head…had to have been done in the making, but I don't know how…it is too small to have been a burst bubble…hard to see!

This tiny cutie is priced at $550.00

AB 134 - 5" French Mignonette in Her Presentation Box with Extras

This is an exceptionally pretty little 5" French mignonette, in her original presentation box with extra dresses.

Her bisque is perfect…and what a gorgeous face! She is the prettiest one of these I have ever had! I love her cobalt blue glass eyes, and her long frizzy blond original wig. Her pegged stringing is tight so she is ready to display. Her legs have white stockings and pink boots…so cute!

She is shown in her chemise with pantalets under…she also has extra pantalets and petticoat with matching lace trim, and a pale pink coat dress as well as a pale aqua with silk "buttons" and lace trim. A felt hat and tiny white leather shoes and stockings fill the top compartment.

This would be a lovely centerpiece for an all bisque collection! Ask to see other pictures if you are interested!

This wonderful doll is priced at $3850.00

AB 121 - 8 ½" All Bisque Kestner '208'

Here is another 8 ½" Kestner all-bisque...this one is a red head...her mohair wig is a replacement but it is lovely and suits her complexion perfectly!

She has lovely hands with separate thumbs, and legs with the usual white stockings with blue garter bands and black one-strap shoes with tan soles.

AB 112 - 3" MIBS ~ Louis Amberg & Son ~ 1921

Only 3" tall, but what a cute little character doll! Mibs was designed by Hazel Drucker in 1921. She has a wistful expression with molded hair with a curl on the center of her forehead and an upturned bob in back...sweet and childlike. She is so cute nude that she is rarely seen dressed. This little one is fortunate to still have her label (though the top part is hard to read)...it says "Please love me...I'm MIBS".

Her back is impressed "C" in a circle (copyright) LA&S Co - Germany. She has no damage but an extra bit of brown shoe color is on her sock (right inside leg)...this is only seen from the back...there is also a tiny thin line of that brown on her tush.

She is priced at $245.00

AB 102 - 3 ¾" Glass-eyed All Original Swiss Girl

This is a wonderful little doll in the detailed costume of the Canton of Berne, Switzerland. She has a pretty little face with dark brown glass set eyes, fine lashes all around, a sweet tiny mouth and softly blushed cheeks. She is perfect too, with no damage anywhere.

Her graceful hands, and legs with brown mid-calf stockings, and black heeled slippers with one strap, lead me to believe that she was made by Simon & Halbig. I am not about to remove her perfect wig, with long blond mohair braids still tied with the original black silk, to see if her head is marked. Her black velvet bonnet is tied over that also. Her limbs are pegged so she is fairly early also.

Her costume is quite elaborate starting with lace trimmed pantalets and petticoat, a fine black wool skirt with red binding at the hem, cotton blouse with puffed sleeves and tucked bodice, red sateen apron, and the pretty black velvet vest with beaded flowers on the front. Metallic cord steps in to represents the fine chains that normally are seen going under the arms with this costume.

She is just a great miniature doll in fabulous condition!
She is priced at $330.00

AB 100 - 3 ¼" Pair Hertwig Flapper Girls ~ Adorable and All Original!

It's nice to find these little dollhouse dolls that have been packed away for decades! They are clean and wear bright costumes. They are a perfect pair with bows on opposite sides of the hats, but matching flower decorations on their vests.

These are definitely products of the clever and diverse Hertwig Company...from the late 20s or 30s. The girl in orange has "Germany" impressed on her right inner thigh...the one in blue may be unmarked. They are usually impressed on their backs as well, but with the clothing sewn on, you can't see the back at all.

They are the usual pre-tinted pink bisque that Hertwig used for all of these little dolls. They are free of any damage, and ready to join your doll collection, or your dollhouse family.

The pair is priced at $235.00

AB 88 - 5 ¼" Sleep-Eyed Kling Girl

This little girl was made by Kling…her head has typical Kling cut at the crown and is impressed "65 (bell) 12". She also is identifiable as a Kling by her brick pattern stockings. Her brown 2-strap shoes also have a pattern to them…alligator??… plain un-textured heels and tan soles. She has dark brown sleep eyes with the original wax and set, but they seem to need a little assist to close…the weight just isn't heavy or long enough. She has the early heavy brass wire jointing.
The tips of the first two fingers of her left hand are chipped on the cupped inside…hardly noticeable.

She wears a new polka dot silk dress and lace panties…all set to party!

She is priced at $325.00

AB 84 - Wonderful Clown Squirter Doll by Carl Schneider


In case you are unfamiliar with these, the top of the head has a rubber bulb (usually long gone) and it was removed to fill the hollow body with water, when the bulb was replaced and squeezed the boy would "pee" in a nice arc! This amazingly still has the rubber bulb, but it has hardened and can no longer be squeezed without destroying it.
He is 3 7/8" tall and is impressed on his lower legs in back...3435. This is a typical Hertwig number, and the style and work are typical of the Hertwig factory too. He is perfect!

He is priced at $195.00

AB 62 - German Comic Nodder ~ UNCLE BIM


This is a wonderful 3 7/8" German bisque comic nodder (or knotter, as some prefer) made by the great Hertwig & Co. This dapper gent is UNCLE BIM and I would call his condition near mint...he has been restrung, so he is very easy to pose. He is mounted on an old cardboard disk, as were several others from this collection. There is a tiny slight rub on his right elbow and another on the bottom of his jacket. He is marked on his back "UNCLE BIM / Germany".


He is priced at $175.00.
