German Doll Studies by Jurgen & Marianne Cieslik

Table of Contents: Page 1 - Page 2

The authors of the long-out-of-print German Doll Encyclopedia have been hard at work for the past decade. They are the publishers of Cieslik's Puppenmagazin, named "The best doll magazine in the world" at an international doll conference in Paris, France. Unfortunately, that magazine was published in the German language and its wonderful research was a "closed book" to English language collectors. Its exceptional research will change many notions of "who made what" as well as solve many old mysteries. This is a must-have book for any serious collector. Great human-interest reading, too, for lovers of history. Early wooden dolls, Liepzig doll doctor, Holiday toy displays, Maquette, Lithopanes, Cat Dolls, Oracle Dolls, Asian dolls, Native American dolls, snowbabies, Half-Dolls, and Piano Babies are all included in this amazing book. This is definitely a must-have for any German Doll collector!!
