The Bye-Lo Baby was designed by Grace Storey Putnam to represent a three day old infant. The bisque head dolls are marked 1923 by Grace S. Putnam Made in Germany on the back of the neck and were manufactured by such companies as J.D. Kestner, Alt, Beck & Gottschalck, Hertel & Schwab and others. The cloth body was made by K & K Toy Co. of New York and was often stamped “Bye-Lo Baby”. The doll’s hands were either celluloid or composition. The bisque head dolls came in different head circumference sizes (8″, 10″, 12″, 15″, and 17″). The larger sizes seem to have a higher value. The eyes were made to open and close. Although some people think the dolls are unattractive, these baby dolls continue to be very popular among antique doll collectors today.
