I am sorry, I did not mean to hide your comment. My husband just said that he did not completely glue her wig down. He said, he glued it is six, 3/16 of an inch in diameter spots. I am going to add more pictures now.

:) You never know how many credits an auction will bring. Why don't you, if I might suggest, have auctions, then make me an offer. It never hurts to try. Good luck to you.

Armand Marseille dolls were made from 1885 to early 1930's.

What condition is the body in? You do not show her without clothes?

I just looked at her. Her kid body is in good condition. The fingers are all there. I would say that for her age, she is in excellent condition.

IS she a reproduction? She looks too new to be an antique.

She is not a reproduction, I believe. She has incised "Armand Marseille" on the back of her head. Usually, reproductions don't have that. I believe that the silk dress is original. Her fur collar, I guess is new. That is just a guess. Her wig has been replaced. I just bought her wig and leather shoes. I take very good care of my things. I spent two hours ironing her dress the other day; I did not want to scorch it. I would not buy a doll that was not in very good to excellent condition for her age in the first place.

Can you take her wig off and show the condition of her head and at the back of her head show the Armand MARSEILLE stamp? Thank you.

Oh wow! My husband just glued her wig on her head the other day. I just talked to him, and he said, he would try to remove her hair piece. We don't want to destroy a perfectly good hair piece. I will get back to you on our success. If we are successful, I will add the pics. I will add them, if I can get them to show up! It will be later this evening.

Unless you stood in the factory on the day she was made, and then took her home to be passed down to your children and grand children, it is impossible to know.

Do you know her model number? It should be on the back of her head with the Armand Marseille stamp?

I hope you can tell from the pic. It is after seven, and I have not stopped to have dinner.

Could you please take off her wig and clothes and show pictures of her head front and back and her body? What is the brown line on right hand?

I have posted as many pictures as I can. I showed a 1/8" to 1/4" tear in her kid leather body. I believe the line you are referring to was a bit of dirt or a rub spot. Please, don't expect perfection of a doll this old. I know antique doll seller who sells dolls for several thousand dollars, and she always says the same thing. Like all children, a mom has to take them imperfections and all.
