Toys & Dolls

Dolls are the oldest toys, in use since prehistoric times when they were made from materials like clay, fur, and wood. Doll entries are listed by marks printed or incised on the doll, if possible. Toys are designed to entice children, and today they have attracted new interest among adults who are still children at heart. Collectors are interested not only in the toy, but also in the history that it represents. For more information, explore our toy identification guides.
