Belonged to my grandmother. No info about age or where she acquired her. Original clothing, although worse for wear. Head, hands, and feet/shins are porcelain. Body is cloth, not sure of the filling. No identifying marks. My grandmother died at 82 in 2011 and said she had her for as long as she could remember, just not where she got her.
Approximately 14 inches tall
