Book Description
The first, favorite, and most trusted, price guide to all types of dolls is even more colorful and reader-friendly in its 14th edition. It is organized into an "Antique" section which covers the manufacturers of the bisque, china, wax, wood, cloth and papier-mache dolls of the 19th and early 20th century and a "Modern" section which covers the makers of composition, hard plastic, vinyl, artists' dolls and more. Arranged alphabetically by manufacturer, the Blue Book features over 560 photographs. This year an extensive, easier-to-read index makes the book easier to use. The introductory section contains sound advice about the factors that affect a doll's value. Advice is also given on how to sell a doll. Indispensable for identifying and pricing all varieties of dolls. 336 pages.

Reader Reviews
This review is from: Blue Book of Dolls & Values (Blue Book of Dolls and Values, 14th Edition) (Paperback)
First this isn't an ID guide and no one should approach it as such. Books for the purposes of identification abound. The Blue Book assumes you have ID'ed your doll. Second, this is a guide and more importantly it is a HISTORY of values (prices paid at shows, auctions, etc.) since the last one was published. The market has a way of fluctuating and the book is not gospel, just a guide. If you're buying, you can expect to pay more or less than the book indicates. Keep that history part in mind...! If you're selling... well, these are "retail" prices by-in-large. Selling to a dealer will never net you retail. The Blue Book is still the best of its sort around!
