This Doll: http://goto.glocalnet.net/rumspringa/Korea.jpg
was bought in Korea around 1950 (during the war) by a swedish nurse who brought it home and it has been stacked away until recently when she died. It is in perfect shape, I guess it is handmade but I don't know much about dolls so I could be wrong. But it sure looks better in real life than on the picture. The doll is 10 and 1/4 inch tall and has beautiful cloths under the kimono.
In the box you can also find a fan (or what it is called).
I just wanted to know if this doll could be worth any money; anyone who could guess its value? Or maybe someone can tell me how I can find out elsewhere?

That is a very beautiful doll. Are they any marks on the back of the head or back of the doll, or on the clothes that might help with identifying the maker of the doll?
No, I could only find som korean letters on the clothes:

On the back it looks like this:

I guess it isn't that valuable then?
