Comprehensive collection of Jane Arden and antique paper doll illustrations, ads

Description

Here is a huge collection of Jane Arden and other, older paper doll illustrations. This was assembled by a master collector as a reference. The notebook has 118 pages of artist illustrations of paper dolls, most dated. In addition there are colored reproductions of Jane Arden paper dolls. Alongside the copies are copious notations about fashion and design, Also, many pages of information,including photocopies of  “ Tuck “ listings.. I know nothing about paper doll collecting. Many of the drawings were by J W McGuire and later by Russell Ross, for followers of art .Another section of the compilation is “Boots”
There is an addendum. There are photocopies of antique paper dolls, including Bendels, Susie’s Pets, Freeman Milling Co., McLoughlan Bros, Boraxine, Boston Herald Ladies, etc. . Although I know very little about old paper dolls, I  do know enough to know that the woman who wrote, assembled and put these references together put in decades of work to compile these as a resource, for followers of art, fashion and for paper doll collector's
This is guaranteed to be sourced and copied from old, original and and amazing amount of reference pages. Copies are dated mostly from the 30s and 40s, with many from antique paper doll collections and ads.
