Hello there, first time Doll Forum user, I have found a doll head in a privy dig the other day. Not knowing anything about these things. They kinda scare me....ha ha... Oh well, can anyone tell me what the marks on the back mean. There is a number of 1900(date) with a 3/0. Made in Germany. I do have the eyes as well and they appear to be glass. This is the first one that came out of a pit that was whole. The pit was about 8 feet deep and all of the stuff dated to the 1890's- 1900 era. Thanks for any info that you might have. Oh yea, is their a market for these things? Here are the pics....jgas

Thanks Mojjax, that looks to be the one. Interesting how it survived all these years deep under ground. Thanks jgas
 

I'm guessing that if you kept on digging you'd come across the eyes too? They should be made of glass. Maybe the limbs are down there too. If so.. and none are broke you may have a good treasure there to sell as a set. Some doll makers resew bodies back on if you have the complete set.
