Hi Mac ! hope all is well with you haven't seen you post a doll in awhile
Anyway your doll is marked AE Deluxe Reading mark and Allied Co. among a few . Mary Hoyer never used AE . A original Mary Hoyer that left factory was always maked mary Hoyer , some that were sold to other companies the bodies have impressed circle with made in USA in it . It was usually deluxe Reading AE and some AE are Allied co. I have no name for her for you and some never had a name . I will see if I can find one in Nurses Uniform my favorite uniform :-) I will post it if I do ok . Thank you mac for sharing her :-)
Thank you Manikin for taken the time to write with the information. I also love to purchase dolls that have nurses uniforms, I think the nurses uniform makes the doll so lady-like. I have recently purchase two Mattel Julia Barbies, one from 1969 the other from 1970, both have their original nurses uniform, they are beautiful. I only pay $22.00 for each, what a bargain.
If you can find the name of the doll in question, I will greatly appreciated. Again Thak you
Will do mac :-) Great buy on the Julie's too !
