Hi
We refer to her a waldo doll . She is very common to find and has no value she was sold from 70's to 80's . Here is a link that will tell you all about her
Sorry I could not say she was worth more but they are everywhere and no one is buying them :-( Please watch video it is very good !

One maybe just a variation of her but these were low quality mass produced dolls and are from very late 70's most likely 1980's. Don't over do yourself as these dolls did not have a name and there value is in that they were your Grandmothers and are important to you and love them because of that :-) They are not antique dolls
Hope this helps you out and thank you for sharing
Please omit it was your grandmothers doll that was meant for another person . But all the rest is correct . She is solved . Please do be sure and watch video on her :-)
well thanks for the info i only paid 50cents for her.
Your welcome :-)
