K&R Doll
ThIs is a K&R Doll, with number 36 above the Star of David. This doll is the very first of the character dolls and was modeled from the three-day-old son of the workman who made it. It is a collector's item and there is one in the famous St George Collection. The letters K and R are marked on the back of the neck.
My Mom currently owns it and I am looking to sell it.
