How would I find the value of an antique doll from the early 1900s?
I’m sorry to hear about the loss of your grandmother and I’m sure her doll is priceless to you no matter what her monetary value is. But I do understand the desire to know what you have. There are many websites devoted to dolls to help you Identify them and ebay is the best source to find out current market value. But first of all you need to know what terms search with. I wish I could see a picture so I could help you more. (you can email me one if you want) because there were no plastic dolls in the early 1900’s, unless it’s celluloid (which is very thin & fragile) Most dolls of that time period were made of bisque and then later, into the1920’s & 30’s dolls were commonly made of composition. Celluloid dolls were popular from the 1920’s into the 1930’s as well. If it is hard plastic it would date from the late 1940’s – early 1950’s and if it’s vinyl or blown plastic it could date from the early 1950’s until present times. If the doll has a glued on wig it is most likely hard plastic
