How do I identify a Skookum doll?

How do I identify a Skookum doll?
To identify Skookum dolls, first study their faces. The faces of the dolls always seem to look off to the side. Some have a label that says "Skookum Bully Good" on one foot. On 1stDibs, shop a range of expertly vetted Skookum dolls.
