if my memory serves me well, i,m sure that the doll i had did not have Germany, on it....now that i think about it, i,m sure it did,nt....because when i found the doll,during a house clearance...my first thoughts on seeing the name....were...it is French....as the name looked French....and i was shocked when i found out that it was in fact German.....i have been searching around.....and although i am no doll expert....i,m of the opinion....that it may not be all that it seems.....
