Woman Needs Help with Black Baby Doll from Childhood

Who is this approximately 9- to 12-inch tall mystery circa 1970s-1990s vinyl and cloth baby doll?


Do you recognize the doll (its name and maker) in the photos provided by a woman who owned it as a child? 

The woman as a 1-1/2-year-old child holds the mystery baby doll.

These photos were taken in 1991, but the woman's mother thinks the doll might have been purchased from a thrift store and could date back to the 1970s. (It appears to be from the 1980s-1990 to me.)

Further description from the former owner notes it had a white cloth body and plastic (vinyl) head, hands, and feet. "I feel like her hand position and the size of her feet are unique as well as the placement of her ears and some of her features," she wrote. She is not sure about the doll's height. (Between 9 and 12 inches tall is my estimate.)

These are the best pictures and the only information provided. 

I've checked my doll references and consulted other collectors for help. I was granted permission to share the photos to ask the general doll-collecting community for identification help. Please use the comment section to offer leads and/or the doll's definite ID. The woman would like to replace her childhood doll that she "carried everywhere..." Thank you in advance!
