1927 Jimmie (boy) or Dimmie (girl), 14" tall, socket head with all composition jointed body with/or without body twist ball joint waist, molded painted hair, large painted eyes, dolls are unmarked but had a wrist tag.  We think both dolls are identical, but that the clothing determined the dolls name ie. dressed as a boy then it's Jimmie, a girl then it's Dimmie.

Note: These dolls were also sold by: Horsman, who called their doll; Boots.  The Maxine Doll Company named their doll Mitzi (she will be marked as such), & Sears called their doll Tootsie.  

To make a positive ID on the manufacturer, doll will need tagged clothing, it's original wrist tag, box or possibly some manufacturers may have had a marking on their doll.
