It is unknown who actually produced the so called Sybil Jason celebrity dolls.  A doll shown in Mertz composition doll book, volume I, is named or described a Stewardess doll and is a Sybil Jason doll. Besides finding the Sybil Jason above 1996 article and photo, Cyndi Deimler has also found a newspaper ad for a Dirnl Doll also a Sybil Jason doll. 

This Sybil Jason doll face mold is similar to the dolls designed by Dewees Cochran for Effanbee 1936-1939 called: American Children dolls, also made of all composition, but they have very different hands.  Cochran’s doll design have very detailed hands with separate spread apart fingers, while the dolls shown here have less detailed hands with a separate thumb and the rest of the fingers together.
