It is not an old doll. Similar dolls on etsy are selling for $35 and under.

I am a bit confused. The top photo is a doll of color and the markings on the bottom doll are from a doll that is not.

Are you trying to ID the top doll? Does she have any markings?

If she turns out to be an ANNETTE HIMSTEDT doll, she could be quite valuable.

Please post back more on the top doll and what you need on the second doll and the whole second doll if you need help with her also. Thanks!

An Australian Aboriginal doll is a find, indeed. Not sure what the market value in the US would be for that since we don't really have the whole concept of Aboriginal here, and am not sure what the price would be in Australia per se, but as an unusual artifact it is definitely above the norm.

The only realy problem is that it is not in a box and looks well-used

the other problem is that as Judy said being mass produced in the 90s means it lacks actual value as an object or commmodity

Hi, your Aboriginal doll called Katina, is from the Jillaroo Collection. I have an identical doll...! At the time, Mark Jones was the managing director. It would have originally come with a certificate of authenticity that indicated it's number in the production of how many were made.

At the bottom of the certificate it has the initials M.J.D. I hope this helps. Carol

Katina is a reproduction modern artist doll, I also have the mold as many other doll makers in the 90s, assuming Mark Jones used the mold to commercially mass produce reproductions of said doll.
