22" Child Doll. She is not your typical dolly face doll. You don\'t come accross this mold very often.I couldn\'t find this doll or the maker in any of the latest Blue Book Doll&Values by Jan Foulke. But, in German Doll Marks and Identification Book by Jurgen&Marianne Cieslie indicated from the symbol and the marking, that Wally is manufactured by Porzellanfabrik Limbach, Germany. Unknown date. (possible earlier than 1900.)

She has no damage to her bisque head. And the wood/composition body still has original finish. There is a rebuilt pinkie finger. She has opened mouth with teeth; original glass socket eyes still have her hair lashes, dimpled chin and adorable full cheeks.

InsisedWally 7

A symbol: a crown, clover with marking inside L 17 72
Limbach

Made in Germany


She has brown replacement human hair wig. Her original socket eyes are very nice with original waxed lids and full hair lashes. Painted lower lashes with feather strokes eyebrows.
Again, there is no chip, crack or damage to the bisque.

I made for her a cotton dress with matching hat. I decided on the style and the fabric based on her gentle features and hair style. She has new shoes and no socks. You might want to give her a pair of socks when the weather is colder.
I paid a very high price for her back then. As a collector of sought-after rare dolls, a must to complete my curiousity. After all, the quality of the bisque on this doll is just like what you found on the typical dolly face child dolls. And the quality of the body is about the same as a Simon&Halbig doll. What makes her more valuable is her rareness and the name at the back of the head WALLY.
For dolly face doll collectors, this one is your conversation piece. I bet not too many of your collector friends have the same mold.

Please look at the photos for details. No damage to bisque head.


I prefer Paypal. I do not offer lay-a-way because I am just a collector, not a typical seller. Ocasionaly, I can arrange a 2-3 payment plan. The term is 1/3 due within 5 days after the end of the sale and the remaining can be sent within the next 2 months.
I personally pack your items with care. I received too many broken dolls from my sellers so I know how sad and painful it is to see the dolls falling apart from shipping. I provide shipping/insurance cost upfront so you know what to expect. US shipping by Parcel Post. For small package I can send by Priority. For large package, if you want Priority, let me know. For multiple purchases, I will combine items and discount 50% shipping cost on the smaller/lighter item. For out of the country shipping,I ship packages using Standard International only if it is a small package of less than 4 lbs. Larger packages go by priority mail and EMS (Global Express)
Attention: For International buyers, I am happy to sell to buyers outside of the USA, but I am not responsible for the high risk of damage from long trip. Besides, for some countries, the insurance only covers loss, not damage. You will have to understand that\'s why most sellers do not want to deal with non-USA shipping. Contact for arrangement before you place your offers.
Most of my items are antique or vintage so keep in mind that they are not in new/unused condition. Excellent condition in this case means compared with others of the same age. Every effort has been made to expose any flaws to the buyers using both description and photos. Please do not rely on either description or photos alone. Ask if you are not clear since items are not returnable unless misrepresented, and that would be unintentional. In any case the buyer is responsible for return shipping cost.
*** THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR VIEWING MY sale AND HAPPY offerDING!!!!!!! I would like to thank all of you for the perfect response and emails, your warm appreciation for my work in taking care and restoring these antique dolls in the past. My descriptions have always been very conservative, as I would rather err on that side. I am not in the business of selling dolls. I offer these choices only to narrow down my collection. My dolls are antique/old dolls I sell them as is because that\'s how I bought them. I hope that you will like them as much as I do.
