And what is the markings? See I'm having a time finding any 975's under Haubach.
Here is one on a composition body, but yours is a kid body.

thank you vestawind the 975 etc is partially covered (just a little bit) by the material should that be?
Sure. It's all in how the leather kid body was put on. hmm.. I'm not an expert on bisque, more an expert on finding them. I know enough to get me by. Let me keep digging
Here is an example of Haubach. They didn't make dolls under that name for very long. I might have to send you to the doll board

Okay so this is the deal. Your 975 number might not be right..There should be a date I'm thinking, such as the example below. Also I can not be sure if the body is a replacement or not. Have you ever gone to the Ebay doll boards? (under community) Someone there might know just by looking at her.
