Antique bubble doll?

By john066, 2 July, 2017
Description

I have a antique doll that I am unsure about. It was labled as a 1939 bubble doll. The only markings i can find are on the back which state "petite amer.char.doll co". I know nothing else about it but will answer any quesitons as best as i can.

Re: Antique bubble doll?

American Character.Doll Co. operated from 1919-1968. In 1923 American Character trademarked the name Petite used on their early mama and character dolls.  Best known for the 1928 composition dolls; Campbell Kids, Puggy and Sally dolls, later noted dolls were the Tiny Tears and Betsy McCall dolls. Dolls like these were made in huge numbers, currently comparable dolls sell for under $100.00.
