>>>The most familiar name relating to metal head dolls is Minerva. They were manufactured 1894 through 1925. Registered trademark in the U.S. by A. Vischer & Co. and in Germany by Buschow & Beck.
Metal Head Dolls were sold with painted hair/mohair wigs, painted eyes/glass eyes.
Metal doll heads were advertised in the old catalogues and often sold separate from bodies so a homemade cloth body could be sewn on.<<<
