Says 1 of 2000 made in the world tag. Looking for value. It's taller than both my kids. Amazing definition. I can't find any info online at all. It has all the Indian clothes and boots. Wrap around wire with pole to make a stand with.

Unfortunately these dolls (the tall Native American) genre have now had the same fate as the smaller dolls in that the market has completely bottomed out on them and most are sitting unsold for as low as $5 on a variety of websites and in person venues.
As a long time reseller and someone who has sold dolls, my recommendation is if you can hold on to him, his value may come back in 5-10 years. The whole Marie Kondo and Swedish death cleaning of toss everything has prompted many people to toss their doll collections or donate them to charities for resell, which glutted the market (along with the fact that limited edition really didn't mean limited as there were millions produced--even though the series said 2000...it would be 2000 with the name "Guyapi", then 2000 more of the exact same doll with a slightly different name and 2000 more of the exact same doll with a third name, etc.
In the future, collecting dolls will probably come around again and then you can sell. If you decide to sell now, just be aware, best to sell in person (like at a consignment store, or yard sale or flea market) because he is very fragile and at his size, shipping would cost more than he is worth--which will really limit who would buy online. When you do in person, start high and take best offer...which sadly may be as low as a few dollars.
This one was listed for $18.99 on Goodwill and never sold. www.shopgoodwill.com/
There was already a question here about the price of a similar large Goldenvale Native American Porcelain Doll: www.thriftyfun.com/
The price depends on whether you have a vintage brand or new brand.
4 Foot Porcelain Doll - Native American - Goldenvale Collection NIB not vintage, in new condition, is on sale for US $420 www.ebay.com/
But there are also vintage Goldenvale Native American Porcelain Dolls, such as Goldenvale Native Nicolas about 4 foot 9 inches, made in the 1990s www.worthpoint.com/
48 inch tall £32.67

It is not easy to sell such a large doll as it is fragile and shipping is expensive.
