PreMattel Addys look different in the face. You can easily tell the difference between a newer Addy and the PreMattel ones. The faces on the older Addys is thinner and not as "cheeky" as the newer dolls. The so called "artist's mark" means nothing and shows up on new dolls as well as old and not all older dolls have this mark. My Addy is PreMattel and she has none of these marks. If you look carefully on ebay at the older dolls versus the newer Addys on the website, you will be able to see the difference in the face.
