3.0 out of 5 stars Lower your expectations, October 31, 2000
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Nancy Ann Storybook Dolls (Hardcover)
I agree with the reviewer who said this book was a disappointment. The editors should be smacked for including all of those horrid b&w photos. As someone who was looking for help identifying Nancy Ann dolls and could have really used this book, it was a great disappointment because of the photos.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent reference book for the Nancy Ann doll collector!, January 29, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Nancy Ann Storybook Dolls (Hardcover)
Marjorie Miller's book is the best book available on Nancy Ann Storybook Dolls (made mostly in the 1930's - 50's). It contains many pictures to help the reader identify dolls, and it includes an extensive history of the dolls and doll company. The book describes the Muffie dolls, Lori Ann, Style Show, and the ever popular 5 1/5 - 6 1/2 inch bisque and hard plastic dolls, among others.

3.0 out of 5 stars A big disappointment for this Nancy Ann doll fan!, April 10, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Nancy Ann Storybook Dolls (Hardcover)
After seeing the colorful cover, I was shocked to find page after page of fuzzy, black and white photos inside this book. How wonderful it would have been to have seen some of these beautiful dolls in color or at least in well-lighted pictures! The author obviously seems to prefer the older bisque dolls, which are covered in most of the book. A shorter section is devoted to the hard plastics, which many collectors love. Does anyone really want to see so many pages of patterns for Nancy Ann doll furniture? I would have rather read about or seen dolls!
