These dolls were made mostly in late 1980's early 1990's to see to adults as collectible dolls they did often mark limited to encourage you to think it would increase in value like a Vintage or Antique doll did but that was not the case they fell very low in price in today's market . They are hard to sell . Yours is nice but there are so many of these artist dolls for sale on ebay it is in 1000;s and very few sell . At the time they originally sold many were not cheap and some quite costly . Lots of them were sold on HSN and QVC at the time by artists . The name of who made her should be signed under limeted edition number on back of her neck .
One like her on ebay but has not sold at that price
