My uncle bought a huge collection of dolls and we are trying to identify several of the unique one's. A lot of the dolls do not have any marking just like this one. This doll is beautiful. She is plastic. I do not know what kind of doll she is. I don't think she is a barbie. Would love any input on how to help find out more info on her.
