This is a dear little doll I found among my mother's things...Since there is a tag on the back, I was able to do some research on her. (I am not a collector and know next to nothing about dolls!) She is, of course, a Madame Alexander doll, a Southern Belle. She certainly looks the part! If anyone knows more details about this doll, I would love it if you would share them! I can't seem to find this exact doll in the reference books.
