Gotz Doll

Gotz Doll

Gotz Doll, West Germany. Help, Need Help from a Doll Collector or Someone?

Hi. My question today is about a Gotz Doll my aunt had gotten me between 1992-1994. I'm trying to figure out what type of doll she is. All she has on the two tags are the number 19 (pink tag) and were she was made which is Made in West Germany, Gotz Puppenfabrik, GmbH + Co. KG, 8633 Rodental Postfach 1180. Both tags are on her black and white top that has a black belt thing around her stomach and wears black pants and a red headband. Her hair is blond and her eye color is blue. She has shoes but they snapped and the socks were white but they were lost. I've been trying to figure this out online but I can't seem to find any real information about her at all. I hope someone is able to point me in the right direction.
Thank you for your help.

I have searched some background information for you. On the Gotz company, several articles said they went out of business, they closed the New York office but the website is still up and running and date 2011, So they must have been able to keep the Main head quarters in Germany. Or some one bought the business, they will have catalogs on file of every doll they produced.

They have contact information via email on their website, when you go to the site hit translation and it will appear in English. I seemed to do fine in German. I have written for information from German companies and got great answers.

A bit about the company

Götz is a German company with an American subsidiary based in the United States. The company today is run by the second-generation of the Götz family. 1950, when Marianne and Franz Götz founded Götz Puppenfabrik in Rodental. The first dolls were made of paper mache and were crafted with the help of five family members and sold directly to the public by Franz Götz. Götz dolls are still produced in Germany in one of the largest doll factories in the world. They produce several lines of dolls there--the hand-crafted dolls are made for play but are of high quality. They are created in association with doll artists.
