This book is the first by Collector Books to focus not only on dolls, but on the artists who created them.

Artist profiles are provided, which share the stories behind the creation of the dolls and the source of inspiration for the artists.

Almost 200 beautiful color photographs make the book shine. 2004 values. REVIEW: This book is a companion to the Standard Encyclopedia of Carnival Glass, 9th Edition, but can also stand alone as a handy reference guide to take along on your glass searches. Thousands of patterns, from Absentee Dragon to Zip Zip, are included, with all available colors and values listed.
