These were the other dolls that I also found, The Alexander Doll in gown is pretty, What sweet faces they have, one is a really dirty doll. The tall doll, she has Cuban stockings, I thought that was cool. I'm glad she has both her shoes & two other outfits. But I don't know anything about her, she's like a Barbi Doll on steroids. I can not believe I am this excited over dolls! Who would've thought!

The tall doll is a Miss Revlon and all original made by Ideal company! . The tiny little dolls in knit have no value Plastic molded arts dolls . Now Madame alex baby doll is her gown tagged inside with a name ? She usually put dolls name like Cathy or whatever on tag ? She is in excellent condition her composition is so good she would sell high as well as Miss Revlon . My Last doll as a girl was a Little Miss Revlon yours in the large one and is very collectible too ! look at neck on nude doll she is called a mama doll but a company name should be on her someplace on back of neck . More great dolls ! You go girl . Money is piling up at your house !
I wish it was pile of $$$, but...
I will make new item for alex dolls now. Thanks!
The Alexander looks like she is Princess Alexandria not real common to find .
Wow. You had a Revlon doll, do you still have her? Thank-You so much Manikin, you are wonderful!
I still have some but not my original one . My Mom threw out all our toys nothing was saved so I have a few I bought yrs ago
On Revlon hold off if you decide to sell her as prices have tumbled on her . She would have sold for well over 100 a yr ago but down a bit now . She is worth at least that as her dress is not one of the most common to find .
