Antique German Bisque dolls



Here are 2 antique German Bisque Dolls. They were made in the late 1800's to early 1900's in a Doll Factory in Thuringia Germany. These 2 little dolls have a sad History they bring with them. When Germany was being attacked, in WW1 a lot of these dolls were buried deep in the ground to save them. Unearthed 100 years later, I bought these 2 dolls a few years ago. Because they were buried in the ground so long , they have been cleaned, but alas have inbedded dirt. Still highly collectible. 1 is 4 inches tall, and the other 5 inches.The arms and legs are held on by metal pins.

Dressed up and a wig and these dolls would show the history of dolls of over a hundred years ago!!
