    Would anyone happen to know the maker or time frame of this AWSOME Doll? She has googly eyes that can move around. She has like a button hard spring in the middle of her back. Also she is made of part straw and part stuffing. She measures 12" tall and 12" wide. I just love this Doll! Her face is a painted vinyl material. Her sewn outfit has music notes and older Victorian couples dancing. The ends of her feet and hands are a fur type cloth.

      She is called a "oil cloth mask face doll" would have worn a bonnet and short dress of same fabric . Dating her because she has plastic eyes to end of 40's into 50's .
      You could buy the mask face pre made and painted in a kit with pattern to make a doll like this and they were also sold commercially .
