    I tried to look on the internet but can't find any info. Can anyone tell me where to look for the age of my little girl? She was made by A. G. Mason Mfg. Co. in Cleveland, Ohio. They called her "Golden Star". Her number looks to be 5103083.

    Willa here's one that is on a site. The serial # is higher than yours is and it says it's a 1915. That would date yours to 1914 or possibly older. There is a place on there to get a free appraisal too..Hope this will help you. crafty_linda_b
