The logo indicates that it was a Jewish owned company, and it was in 1933 that Hitler came to power in Germany and enacted many laws restricting Jews from earning a living, among other deprivations. The Nazis killed this doll in 1932, and all her sisters, daughters, and grandchildren. That's what Nazis do.
She's a pretty little thing, and I am not often taken with dolls. She looks a bit scared so I hope whoever gets her takes good care of her, freshens up her outfit and talks nicely to her.

They don't have the date she was "born", but the company was active from 1886-1932 in Germany. Here is some more info about the company:
