Editorial Reviews

Review

This is by far always one of the best reference books around for Madame Alexander Doll Collectors. It gives you a great guideline for what your dolls are worth as well as exquisite photos of dolls that you may never have the opportunity to own or even see in person. I will be a yearly buyer for as long as they keep publishing! -Donna Mcelhannon

This review is from: Madame Alexander 2009 Collector's Dolls Price Guide #34 (Madame Alexander Collector's Dolls Price Guide) (Paperback)

This is a must have if you collect Madame Alexander dolls. Especially if you are interested in acquiring vintage Alexanders. This is the most comprehensive price guide devoted to Madame Alexander dolls, and Linda Crowsey is definitely a recognized authority on the brand. While I own a good number of Alexander dolls dating back as far as the mid-1930s, I do not consider myself an exclusive Madame Alexander collector, I collect many of the popular mid-20th Century American doll brands. However, I buy this guide at least every other year to keep up with market values. It is a must have reference for anyone interested in Madame Alexander dolls.
