Dolls are virtually ubiquitous in the history of all nations and cultures, their uses ranging from religious and magical ceremonies to the entertainment of children and adults alike. The oldest examples of dolls originate from Ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome, and dolls are still being mass-produced by leading toy manufacturers today. This fascinating book explores the history, popularity, and development of dolls in America, and is highly recommended for the modern doll enthusiast. A delightful and thoroughly interesting treatise, "American Historical Dolls" is not to be missed by collectors of related literature, and would make for a wonderful addition to any bookshelf. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on the history of toys.
