First thing you have to do is id the material of the doll, if its composition the arm inside will be solid, hard plastic open. leather 1900's. Then you move to the back of the head and or back of the back too there will be be a maker mark or name of a factory and if they are bisque (uncoated china) there will be a mold number. Everything had to be marked after 1880 with the name of the country of origin. Hope this gets you started
