Your Doll Collection (A Primer for Beginners)

Boy do I remember some of the dolls I had as a kid. What I wouldn’t give to have some of them now…

Not because of what they would be worth money-wise (and boy would they be worth a lot!) but because of all the joy I had when in their company. If you’re like me, you’re kicking yourself for not saving those dolls. Who knew that we would look back on them with such nostalgia? And now, of course, many of them are collectibles.

But this book isn’t about my wistful remembrances of dolls from my past. Nor is it intended to be an encyclopedia of doll collecting. It’s just to help you get your feet wet in doll collecting. If you’re interested in starting a doll collection, or in starting a business to sell collectible dolls, hopefully the info I’m providing in this little book will help.

Here are a few chapter titles:

Proper Care of Your Collectible Dolls
