Please help with a vintage doll ID.  Is this Cissy?  She is 20" with jointed knees.  Not marked.

No, she is not a Cissy.  I am quite sure she is a doll called Margie or Marjorie from Belle Doll and Toy Company from about 1957.  They came in three sizes and yours looks to the the 20" one which had a hard plastic body with jointed knees and a vinyl head and arms.  Margie is unmarked while vintage Cissy is marked Alexander on the back of the neck.  Margie has rooted hair while vintage Cissy has a glued on wig.  I could be more certain if you wanted to show a picture of the body.

Here is a closed listing:

There are a couple of dolls up right now that are being called Belle Margie, but I do not think that they are.   I am mentioning this in case your see them and notice that they look very little like your doll.

Thanks very mush for the information belledejour.  Here's a picture.

That is what I was expecting to see.  The body is hard plastic and the head and arms are a softer vinyl? 

When a doll has no markings at all, there is a tiny possibility the id could be wrong.    I would id her as Margie as positive as I can be without markings.  She is pretty.  I like her look.

Thanks.  Yes, body is hard plastic and head and arms vinyl.  Thanks again for your help.
