She has composition head and hands. Arms, legs/feet, and body are cloth. She might have had a voice box as there is a round circle of hard material in the middle of her back under the cloth. 12" high. Movable eyes. No dimples. "©1924" and "E.I.H. Co. Inc." on the back of her neck.
Does she have a name?
Where was she manufactured?
How long after 1924 was she made?
IS that a voice box in her back?
Any other info that would help me look up more about her?
Many thanks,
Kathryn

Excellent! "Scowling-like face" describes it exactly. Thanks

If I understand correctly, Horsman started using the mark you see on your doll in the late 1920s in response to their unsuccessful action in court against Acme. No idea how long they produced Tynie Baby but I have seen a larger one with partial composition legs.
This is a good though lengthy blog post about Horsman:
