war between the States

 Dolls have been around for a very long time. And it is very hard for me but exciting when I find an old doll as in early 1900s to late 1800s. That would have me jumping if I still could jump that is.  So when I got this doll she was marked a Tin Head. But when I took her apart for repair I found her to be a paper mache head and German made. And those are a bit older then the Tin heads. She would be closer to the Civil War era. I can't get over how nice she is preserved and how good she looks now.Just need to get her dressed now in time appropriate clothing







She now has a spot to shine and looks so pretty there.  The dress came of another old doll. I thought it looked better then the one she came with.  Ready to face another 100 years or so do you think?
