Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Lee Middleton dolls — value, care, authenticity, sizing, and where to find specific editions.
Value depends on the edition, condition, and whether the original packaging and small Bible are included. Rare vintage Lee Middleton dolls from the early 1980s and limited runs from the 1990s tend to command the highest prices among collectors.
The most valuable Lee Middleton dolls are generally the earliest porcelain pieces from the late 1970s and early 1980s, along with limited Reva Schick editions and dolls in original condition with all original accessories and packaging intact.
Yes. After founder Lee Middleton passed away in 1997, production continued under the Middleton Doll Company. New artists, including Reva Schick, kept the realistic baby doll line going, and collectors can still purchase both new releases and vintage editions.
Reva Schick is a Canadian doll artist who joined Lee Middleton Original Dolls in 1997 following the founder’s death. Her designs continued the brand’s signature realistic approach, and dolls attributed to her are now sought-after collectibles in their own right.
Authentic Lee Middleton dolls carry the brand name stamped or labeled on the doll or its packaging, often alongside the sculptor’s name. Original dolls from the 1980s and 1990s also typically came with a small Bible. Certificates of authenticity were included with some limited editions.
Lee Middleton dolls are generally sized to approximate real newborn and infant proportions, typically ranging from around 17 to 23 inches. Newborn versions are weighted to feel similar in the arms to an actual baby, which is a key part of their realistic appeal.

What Collectors Are Saying
Real feedback from collectors and parents who’ve added Lee Middleton dolls to their homes and shelves.
The newborn I ordered looks incredibly real. Weight feels right, facial features are detailed. I’ve collected for years and this holds its own with much pricier pieces.
Patricia M.
Bought the African American version as a gift. Arrived well-packaged, true to the photos. The vinyl is smooth and the face is beautifully done. Very pleased.
Sandra K.
Got a vintage 1994 edition and it’s in perfect condition. The realistic detail is still impressive decades later. Worth every cent for any serious collector.
