Hi Rich, Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. I'm not familiar with this dollmaker or where they were located but from the label I can tell that this was made in the mid 20th Century. Regretably, these dolls have very little value on the market; it may be a case where the sentimental value outweighs its market value. Based on the photos and information provided, and subject to examination, this is: Eastern European composition doll third quarter 20th Century With composition face and hands, clothed in a blond "cossack" hat, wearing a blue felt overcoat over a purple grosgrain suit, long cream-colored scarf, tall cream socks and black shoes, carrying a wire crook. On a circular plastic base with paper label. 8" tall. The base is 3" wide. CONDITION: appears to be in good condition PROVENANCE: inherited $50-75* *represents a fair-market value for auction purposes; retail or asking price may vary. Please let us know if you have additional items to appraise, and thank you again for using Mearto.
