Hi, i have a little composition baby that i think is marked GEM on her back although the E? is kind of hard to see. She has original clothing or so i think as it fits perfectly and looks to be of that period of composition dolls. Any info would be greatly appreciated!!! Her face, arms, and leg paint is great with no chips or crazing however her body paint seems to be flaking off some. She is missing the very tip of one finger but hardly noticable. She is 9 Inches tall. Any info would be greatly appreciated!!!
Gem Toy Co. 1913-1931 NYC, USA - by the 1920s Gem had changed their company name, what company name was used prior to this is unknown, they made 1914 Character dolls in composition. Your doll dates 1920-1930 Very Cute !
