Composition is collective term used to describe a variety of pulped-wood or paper-based mixtures from which doll heads and bodies are made.  Composition was originally produced because it was a less expensive alternative to wooden dolls.  It also allowed for more creativity because it was much easier to work with than wood.  It was discovered in the
1800 that the paper-based mixtures could be pressed into molds.  This allowed for mass production by machine, and greatly changed the doll making industry.  Many different formulas for composition were used, although not many were successful.  Some of the formulas included edible ingredients such as eggshells and bread.  Dolls made from these types of composition were often gnawed on by rodents and insects.  Other types of composition were susceptible to changes in temperature and humidity.  The composition would shrink or swell, depending on conditions, and this would result in the cracking or crazing of the paint.  Another problem with composition dolls is the coat of varnish used to seal the final product.  This varnish often became discolored, giving the dolls a yellow tint.  Therefore, it is very difficult to find a composition doll in mint condition, without cracking or peeling of the heavy paint.
