About This Item
New York: Harry N. Abrams, Inc, 1972. Hardbound. VG, some small markings on DJ. Burgundy velveteen cloth boards with color pictorial DJ, 343pp, 191 illustrations with 70 in color. Photographs by H. Landshoff. In his free-flowing, informal introductory essay, Carl Fox ranges over the history and meaning of dolls around the world, and examines the collector's mania as well. His commentaries to the individual plates are sometimes whimsical, sometimes factual; often a particular doll will bring to mind a passage from a novel, or a poem or newspaper article. Thus he captures the spirit of his subject, provides a wealth of historical and technical information, and gives the reader a revealing glimpse into the workings of one collector's mind. A carefully selected bibliography is also provided.
