<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sassafras, post: 3044933, member: 6320&quot;]As Kiko said, it&#039;s by Schoenau &amp; Hoffmeister. The company was founded in 1901 in Burggrub, Germany. The numbers at the top of her head refer to her mold number and the 13/0 at the bottom is her size. </p><p><br /></p><p>Your doll head is referred to as their &quot;oriental&quot;. It originally would have had either a 5-pc papier mache or composition body. The size of 13/0 for yours means that she was a smaller doll and would have had fixed brown eyes, however the larger dolls did have sleep eyes. If a girl, she would have had a wig done in to a topknot. Boys usually show up in military uniforms like the one in the link below. He sold for $125.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/8057434_8-spbh-oriental-military-doll" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/8057434_8-spbh-oriental-military-doll" rel="nofollow">https://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/8057434_8-spbh-oriental-military-doll</a> </p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s a girl that has had her body replaced, been given a new wig and has been redressed. Basically, everything yours needs except eyes! They did a very nice job restoring her and did so appropriately. Worthpoint shows she sold in 2011 for $651. </p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/schoenau-hoffmeister-4900-oriental-142726026" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/schoenau-hoffmeister-4900-oriental-142726026" rel="nofollow">https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/schoenau-hoffmeister-4900-oriental-142726026</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
