Third edition: Doll Identification by Herlocher
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I refer to this doll book often. Any author who attempts to include 200 years` worth of antique and collectible dolls in one book has quite a feat ahead. But the author does a wonderful job. This hardback book is printed on quality paper. The photos are very nicely taken. Information is very helpful. PS: Addendum (July,2009): I just found out that this author has just issued "VOLUME 4", in this series(out in July,2009). I will surely buy Volume 4, and enjoy both VOLUME 3 and VOLUME 4 together, because this author does such a nice job with all her books, and it's worth owning both Volumes 3 and 4. In my opinion, that's how valuable Volumes 3 and 4 will become in my own doll library. Thus, if you are a doll lover or doll collector, I would look into both Volumes (ie:3 and 4). PSS: I do not own Volumes 1 and 2 in this series.
Over 275 doll manufacturers are included in a lovely coverage

Dawn Herlocher's 200 Years Of Dolls Identification And Price Guide, 3rd Edition unlike competing doll guides, over 5,000 dolls of all kinds are identified from Raggedy Ann editions to Barbie. The book comes packed with color photos - but the inclusion of manufacturer's marks, comparison charts and histories is what makes 200 Years Of Dolls so special. Of course, there's the latest pricing to aid in valuations. Over 275 doll manufacturers are included in a lovely coverage.
