Trying to find porcelain doll?

Question

There was this porcelain doll in this used bookstore in Ukiah CA that was holding a limp brown little stuffed rabbit, and I believe she had brown hair and brown eyes.... I can't remember exactly. She looked very realistic and pretty. All I know is I wanted that doll and now I'm trying to find her again.... I don't remember the brand name or anything. If someone could please help!? I know there's barely any information but I wanted her so bad a long time ago, and I couldn't get her, but now that I'm older and have the money, I want to buy her. I think she was around 80 something dollars.... Anyway, any info is appreciated!

I think you might need to talk to an antique dealer about this, preferably one who knows about dolls.  Do searches for "antique porcelain dolls" and browse through the sites and you might see her.  Contact ebay sellers who specialize in such dolls and they might have ideas.  This link might be a place to start.

That will not be easy to find. Porcelain dolls were made in the millions during the 80's and 90's...the thrift stores have so many of them, they are trashing them. Dolls that people paid 100's for on QVC and HSN are selling for 1 and 2 dollars.
This might be her but I doubt it..check ebay every day, put in the key words Porcelain doll and rabbit and just see if she comes up.Good luck.
