Doll with bisque head and composition body manufactured by Heinrich Handwerk, Germany. Mohair wig, flange head, ball-jointed body, blue sleeping glass eyes. This doll was won in a church auction by the donor’s grandfather in 1899. The donor was 4 at the time so the doll was saved for her to play with when she was at an older age.
