It was my great grandmother's. I was wondering the value.

These are mass-produced dolls with a value of $25 or less
Hi! Can you please show a picture all of the text on the tag? Does the tag have a date or is there a date on the back of her neck?
The Paradise Galleries I know did not start making dolls until the very early 1990s. Here is the history of the company I know and sold when I worked in retail:
www.paradisegalleries.com/
There may be precursor to that company...which is why I want to see the tag in detail.
Also, can you please tell me how tall she is.
She looks a lot like the gal that was named Blue Angel of Peace, who was 14 inches tall and had wings.
The one with the wings just sold on eBay for best offer with a starting price of $9.95 (so best offer would be less than that).
If this is who you have, but she has lost her wings, that will lower her value.
Unfortunately if it is the PG that started in 1991, in general their dolls have lost a lot of value in the resale market. There is just a huge supply and a low demand, which drives the prices down. This (right before the holidays) is the best time to try to sell if you need to get rid of her now. If not, I have started recommending people hold on to their dolls for another 10-15 years when the market changes.
Now if she is another Paradise Galleries from the 1960s, I need to do more research since that would be new to me.
Looking forward to learning more and offering more info.
Thanks for sharing!
If you take a look on eBay you will see the prices people are asking for these dolls. The price ranges from $10 up to $25. www.ebay.com/
Not worth a lot, these dolls are mass produced and everyone is selling right now.You could stage your doll for better interest/sale!
