Marked NO 999 from 1964-65. They are a little bit taller than the later Petra dolls

I just bought this doll in Denmark, mint condition with wrist tag, stand and box. I also came with a booklet from 1969 and when I look at the dolls wearing outfits from this year she could actually be from 1969. She has large neck knob and no markings.

This too is totally mint with wrist tag but I actually believe she is earlier than 1969, the booklet I got with her is from Boutique 1969 and some boxed outfits I also got is from this year too so maybe she is a 1969 doll, large neck knob and no markings.

Round neck knob and straight bodies.

Round neck knob and twist body. I was told earlier that they may have had another body earlier but as I have got 3 with twist body I believe they were also sold with this body

This doll may be Lea von Plasty, a friend has a factory catalogue but unfortunately with no pictures only a description so it's just a guess.

The first Petra dolls were unmarked and had small neck-knob, at least that's what I thought till now, I just learned that the Hong Kong doll marked NO 999 are early Petra dolls, they are taller than the next Petra dolls. I got 2 of those. A bit later they have large neck-knobs and I got some of these with straight body and some with twist body. It has been suggested to me that the ones with twist body may have had the heads exchanged because this body is used with the 2nd version Petra but I don't believe that to be true as I have found many with the "old" head on twist body.Feel free to comment if you think I'm wrong.

Den første Petra dukke var ikke mærket og havde en lille halsknop, det var hvad jeg troede men jeg har lige fundet ud af, at  dukker mærket Hong Kong 999 er tidlige Petra dukker,  lidt senere rund halsknop med lige krop og med drejelig talje. Det er blevet foreslået at dem med drejelig talje har fået nyt hoved, da denne krop blev brugt til 2. version Petra men jeg tror ikke det er rigtigt, da jeg har fundet en del dukker med det "gamle" hoved og krop med drejelig talje.

Hadde også en med hestehale, og et fantastisk vakkert hår, engang. Det tapte seg under vask, var ikke lengre glansfullt og luftig. Vet du hva det er laget av?
