The COLLECTOR'S ENCYCLOPEDIA OF DOLLS-COLEMAN

VOLUME I--1968,, by Elizabeth and Dorothy Coleman.If you don't already have this book, then you definitely need it, if you are interested in Dolls in any way..This is a master book of all kinds and types dolls.. 2000 illustrations and marks, both in color and black and white. This isthe first. There is a Volume Two Enclyopedia that you will surely want after purchasing this one..Entries, in alphabetical order, cover everything, including aChronology, and a section onbodies.It covers German dolls, French dolls and a host of others.. It is about antique dolls and only goes up to 1924 and the Bylo baby.Issue price was 27.50, but you will have to pay more for it now, since it is 38 years old, and fairly scarce to find.. I cannot even imagine anyone undertaking a book of this size today.. The second volume is even larger.I'm sorry.. This was intended as a book review and I got it in the wrong place.. Oh well, maybe it will help you in some way..
