8'' Character A.M. Rare Mold 395 on Flapper Body

This bisque socket head measures just over 8'' on her five piece flapper body. The head is incised Germany//395.//A. 10/0 M. She has blue sleep eyes with painted upper and lower lashes .Her brows are feathered and flat. Her delicate open mouth has for upper teeth.There is chipping at the rear rim from the wire stringing. There are no other chips, cracks or restoration. There is a tiny baking flaw on her right cheek. The original mohair wig is auburn.The body retains it's original finish except the areas over the restring peg patches. There may be some touch up on one shoe? This doll was made by the German firm Armand Marseille probably 1910-1920. I have not found this character mold in any reference book.

The chemise and half slip are in matching cotton with lavender embroidery. The chemise has raw cut edges and two holes. The net blouse is attached to the half slip.The print skirt is trimmed with amazing metallic ribbon. The head dress has a backing of cotton , which is glued stained.It is adorned with metallic ribbon, ribbon roses and pearls.

This doll was given to a little girl by her Father. Her Hungarian Nanny dressed her in the costume of her country. I am sorry to say, I am unable to find this documentation.
