Antique Q&A: Kling & Co. All-Bisque

I found a pair of little all-bisque dolls at an antique shop. They are about 4 inches tall and are marked 31-10, no maker’s name.

Curious Collector: 1960s Madame Alexander Renoir

I had a chance to buy two 14-inch Madame Alexander vinyl and hard plastic dolls mint in the box. The dolls are identical, both are tagged “Renoir,” and both are in marked boxes with the name Renoir on them.

The name Cissy is on the certificate, but obviously it is a male doll. The doll came with an amazing saxophone, complete with case, and a metal lunch-box-type case. I had never seen anything like this before and wondered what you could tell me?
