Antique Bisque Doll Items of Interest Collectible Fine Bisque Porcelain DollCollectible Porcelain doll.  Genuine Fine Bisque Porcelain Dole.Porcelain Christmas Holiday Doll  The Handbook of Doll Repair & RestorationThe Handbook of Doll Repair and Restoration was a first when it was published in 1979. It is still a first--in its completeness and detail. This is a responsible book, subscribing to the view of true doll collectors: Do nothing to an antique doll that will compromise the authenticity and reduce its value. Whether a doll is a museum rarity, one of many common antique dolls, or a collectible, Marty Westfall's book will lead you through procedures to restore it. The exquisitely detailed step-by-step directions make it possible for collectors, dealers, even those who own just one or two treasured dolls, to make necessary repairs without reducing value. The techniques that author Marty Westfall used from 1973 to 1979 and set down in this book are just as practical today. Her aim was to help the beginning restoration artist, and the information is just as valuable to even the most sophisticated collector. In easy-to-follow directions The Handbook describes how to set stationary and sleep eyes, restring compo bodies, refurbish old wigs and make new ones, repair ball-jointed bodies, clean and repair kid bodies, make cloth bodies, mend chips and cracks, replace missing fingers and toes, and cope with other damages. The Handbook encourages those who wish to learn the art by taking them by the hand and showing them how to get started. At the back of the book is an updated list of suppliers for those who lack ready access to sources of repair materials. Other helpful information includes a chapter on how to distinguish between a legitimate replica doll and a fake made with the intention to deceive and another on how to determine whether a doll has been mended, even if the repair is so skillfully done that it is not readily apparent. Thousands who began using this book as a guide have gone on to develop profitable careers in the restoration field. The same procedures to restore dolls work in restoring other porcelain objet d'arts, such as figurines. Many who began as doll makers have combined their creative art with restoring antique dolls. By learning the techniques in The Handbook, they have improved their skills in creating the valuable antique dolls of tomorrow.  Encyclopedia of Nancy Ann Storybook Dolls: Identification & Values, Vol. 2In the first volume about these dolls, Encyclopedia of Bisque Nancy Ann Storybook Dolls, 1936-1947, Pardee and her co-author Jackie Robertson cataloged the hundreds of bisque storybook dolls made by the company. In Volume 2, Pardee has enlisted the knowledge of Deanna Bardfield, Anne Lien, Lynne Neagle, Ray Radley, and Lillian Roth to showcase this company's variety of dolls and their costumes. The book includes 'the charming small storybook baby dolls that started Nancy Ann on her road to a successful doll,' an extensive plastic storybook section, a photographic delight of the lovely Style Show dolls, and the matching wardrobes of Muffie and Debbie, the playtime dolls, along with Lori-Ann. Pardee gives the reader an opportunity to learn about the vinyl Baby Sue Sue, a large baby with a wardrobe of her own, and offers a never-before-seen catalog of the extensive wardrobe of the vinyl Miss Nancy Ann and Little Miss Nancy Ann high-heel dolls of the 1950s. There is no other research book on the market that covers these dolls so extensively. 2009 values.  Bawdy Bisques and Naughty Novelties: German Bathing Beauties and Their Risque Kin (Schiffer Book for Collectors)As the Victorian era passed into the Edwardian and Roaring Twenties, a market developed for bisque and china naughty novelties and figurines of women in revealing outfits. These little lovelies include bathing beauties, who came clad in swimsuits of real lace or stylish painted beach wear, as well as mermaids, harem ladies, and nudies, who wear only an engaging smile. Also produced were flippers (innocent appearing figurines who reveal a bawdy secret when flipped over) and water squirters. Most were manufactured in Germany from the late 1800s through the 1930s, often showing remarkable artistry and imagination. This photographic study showcases an extraordinary variety of figurines, and the in-depth text will help collectors and dealers discover the rich history behind them. Manufacturing techniques, marks, and manufacturers are discussed, including Galluba and Hoffman, William Goebel, Hertwig and Company, Schafer and Vater, and more. Decorative details, size, and current value are provided for each figurine. A delightful reference for bathing beauty and doll collectors, Art Deco aficionados, and all who enjoy things naughty and mischievous. |
