Product Description
This book concentrates on the limited editions produced by the Madame Alexander Doll Company since 1980. Since its beginning, this famous doll company has created dolls exclusively for certain stores - FAO Schwarz, Wanamakers, Neiman Marcus, Marshall Fields, Disney, and more. These limited edition dolls fall into one of four categories: store or event exclusives, mid-year releases, factory altered dolls, and factory re-dressed dolls. This book showcases these truly exclusive beauties, in almost 400 full color photographs. 2000 values. AUTHORBIO: Linda Crowsey is the author of the annual Madame Alexander Collector's Dolls Price Guide, now in its 28th edition. She has also authored Madame Alexander Store Exclusives & Limited Editions, which has become very popular. REVIEW: Since the publication of the first edition of this book in 1980, interest in Limoges porcelain has increased tremendously. This revised edition is arranged by company and/or mark. The history of the Limoges porcelain industry begins the book, followed by the histories, marks, and examples of the major factories, unidentified Limoges companies, and even miniatures. An index and cross reference to companies, initials, and symbols, are provided.

This is an excellent reference book for the Madame Alexander doll collector. Being a Madame Alexander Doll Club member I found particularly helpful the section on Madame Alexander Club dolls from the early years of the club. It was the first time I had seen some of these. Also enjoyed seeing the store specials and one of a kind dolls. Recommend this book to any Madame Alexander collector.
