This book is easy,fun to read AND it gave me a lot of doll doctors to speak with about repairs. It made getting the doll fixed so easy. Just the book I needed!

I loved the before and after photos of all the antique dolls that have been restored. Having this book has opened up a new world of collecting for me - now I can collect older or worn dolls and I know they will be as good as new. This book taught me alot and I reccommend it to any doll lover.

I was very impressed with the concise information. I used it right away. I have a doll I wanted to have repaired. Several doll hospitals sent me repair information. One doll hospital even sent me photos of previous repairs. It's a necessity for anyone who collects dolls.

We are one of the doll hospitals listed in the book. We have already received a call from Louisiana from another doll hospital that was looking for Margon eyes. Also, we have a web site, and when we receive requests for the "closest doll hospital to where I live", we use the Doll Hospital Directory to answer their inquiry. We foresee using this book as a very helpful resource in our business. Every person who does any doll repair should have a copy.

It is nice to have other doll hospitals to refer customers to that do not wish to mail their dolls for repair, especially knowing that they produce objects of fine workmanship. My name is Heather M. Sainsbury and my hospital, THE CHINA BISQUE DOLL HOSPITAL & GIFT SHOP IN ARCADIA, FLORIDA is listed in this excellent reference guide. The before & after section is amazing! You can look for pictures on my composition restoration there. I am honored to be included in this book, all that are listed are specialists. A SPECIAL UPDATE: THIS PAST YEAR I HAD THE HONOR OF WINNING 1ST. PLACE IN PROFESSIONAL COMPOSITION RESTORATION, BY THE DOLL DOCTORS ASSOC. AND HONORABLE MENTION IN PERIOD COSTUMING AND WIGS. Add this book to your collection it will become one of your prized possessions. EMAIL ADDRESS: dolldoctor@desoto.net Dollingly Yours, Heather M. Sainsbury C.D.D
