By	Irvin Goodman - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Doll Values Antique to Modern (3rd ed) (Paperback)

Contains over 600 sharp, full color pictures of collectible dolls, from antiques to moderns. Many listings include a brief description of the doll. Estimated values are shown for each entry. The book is a joy to look at. The back of the volume contains a complete 1,700 doll name page index for ready reference. Dolls are grouped by manufacturer. A wonderful reference book, and a bargain at the paperback price.

This review is from: Doll Values: Antique to Modern (Doll Values Antiques to Modern) (Paperback)

Patsy Moyer's Doll Values provides a comprehensive fourth edition guide to doll values of the most collectible and commonly collected makers and brands. While arrangement of the book by maker and brand necessitate knowing this information for quick consultation, the many color photos aid immensely in making the identification.
