THE BEST DAWN DOLL RESOURCE AVAILABLE!,
By "janice641" (Milwaukee, WI United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dawn Dolls Official Encyclopedia & Price Guide (Paperback)
A wonderful book with so many incredible photos I could not set it down until I looked at absolutely everything! Beautifully done with great photos of one of my favorite childhood "friends," Dawn. Brought back special memories for me, and also reminded me of Dawn clothes and accessories I had forgotten over the years. I loved seeing each outfit modeled by a doll too. One of the best parts for me was the chapter on knockoff and copycat dolls and toys. I was able to identify a Dawn knockoff doll that I had been previously unable to! Thanks! A great book for the new collector (like me!) or the veteran collector.

Fabulous book for the Dawn doll collector!,
By Robin M. Hall (Conway, AR United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dawn Dolls Official Encyclopedia & Price Guide (Paperback)
This was the first book that I purchased before starting my Dawn doll collection. I played with Dawn and her friends as a child but didn't have any of my dolls. All the pictures in the book are wonderful and help you identify the 'authentic' Dawn doll stuff from the imitations. I didn't even realize that there was so much stuff about Dawn. A very fascinating stroll down memory lane. I refer to this book before purchasing ANY Dawn dolls or accessories. A MUST for any Dawn doll collector!!!

The Most Amazing Dawn Book !,
By A Customer
This review is from: Dawn Dolls Official Encyclopedia & Price Guide (Paperback)
This new Dawn book is a must have for the Dawn collector! Even if you are just starting out, you should see this book. You will find this book to have large and clear photos. Very helpful to see details! The author shares her amazing collection and has some unique hard to find and variations. Other books did not do justice to Dawn dolls. I find myself scanning this book over and over. The price guide is pretty accurate in helping you seek out these lovely ladies. Thank you for sharing your collection with us Benita Schwartz!
