Description: Collector Bookstore is a retailer of new books located in Leavenworth, Kansas. We specialize in price guides and reference books for the antiques and collectibles industry.

Here's a fact that few collectors know - the makers of antique dolls were more absorbed with designing the perfect body than with the head. To find the perfect body - one that would be sturdy, yet realistic and have good articulation - was their quest. Thousands of bodies were designed and produced. This book presents over 200 different examples with references to their maker, particular features, construction details, and keys to ""which bodies match which heads"".

OUR NOTES:

This book will aid antique doll collectors in determining who was the maker for those headless babes looking for a match! Some of the companies covered include: French Fashion Doll Bodies Bru Bebes Bebe Schmitt Bebes Bebe Kid Body Bebe Steiner Rabery Delphieu Bebes Bebe Jumeau SFBJ Characters Danel et Cie Bebes Various commercial cloth bebes German Kid Bodies German Waltershausen German Sonneberg Kestner 1920s German Waltershausen
