In answer to the last review, the book has 900 photos. Nearly all dolls have pricing for both eBay and also non-eBay sources, and the methodology for pricing is clearly set forward in the first chapter. Each secton on a particular doll also has a market analysis for that doll.

This book was helpful in finding the value of some dolls, the pricing was pretty acurate compared to other books
Great information on a vast number of doll types.

Once you start collecting one type of doll, your eyes start noticing all the other dolls as well and you begin to realize that dolls have an important connection to fashion, art, history, and technology. The Official Price Guide to Dolls by Denise Van Patten gives testimony to that thought shared by many avid doll collectors. I like her easy-to-read format of the doll listings and photos. Her contemporary presentation of up-to-date facts prefaced in each category give straightforward details regarding the dolls' features and histories. Investors and buyers alike will find the pricing information helpful. Denise does a super and thorough chapter on educating the doll collector on how to use the Internet and Ebay for buying and selling dolls. This informaion is priceless for many who are anxious to learn about this important technological impact on doll collecting and how to get started. She generously shares her best tips and pitfalls one should be aware of. The book itself is of managable size and fits in your purse to take to a doll shop, show or museum. It is well worth the reasonable price for a great reference tool plus it makes a sweet beside book of dreams for the insatiable doll collector.
A Wealth of Information on Dolls
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I was very pleased with the huge amount of information on dolls available in this one book. I especially liked the fact that, besides prices for dolls, the book also had market information and market trends about dolls. I also liked that the book included Internet pricing for dolls, which is especially useful for buying and selling dolls on eBay (the book also had non-Internet values). Dolls of all kinds were covered and I was able to use the book to price and identify several dolls I was given. Overall, I definitely recommend the book!
