Re: Nippon Doll?Posted by monika on March 28, 20010 at 04:08:00: In Reply to: Nippon Doll? posted by Lani on March 27, 20010 at 16:13:53: : I recently spotted a bisque head, comp. body, fully jointed, open and close eyes, open mouth with teeth, doll that sppears to be circa 1910-20. Clothing is period, but not original. Hair has been replaced by what is probably a human hair wig. She appears to have no cracks, etc. and all her fingers are there. She has a very sweet face. : Her markings are NIPPON and below there were numbers which I wrote down on a piece of paper and have misplaced. The Antique shop is asking $310 for her which I feel might be a bit high in this economy, etc. Particularly for a doll of that style that is not German or French. : Any ideas? I can't afford to buy willie-nillie, but, if she really has the value. . . . . This doll is over priced, should be around $120.00
