1 comments about Authentic Shirley Temple Patterns.
- Well written, directions clear and patterns to appropriate scale to fit collector dolls. Excellent range and choice of costumes to suit favorite characters played by Shirley Temple. Need to have some knowledge of sewing, most beginners should have no trouble.

3 comments about All-Bisque and Half-Bisque Dolls.
- Pauline's daughter here. Forgot to give you contact info. I can be reached at: pauline@angione.com
- Bisque and half-bisque dolls are attractive collectibles, but the market, especially for the smaller sizes, is full of confusion and dealers who don't know bisque from china. Angione had the topic covered. Even if she hadn't been an authoritative and experienced collector, her personal memories of the social context of many of the dolls would be worth the price. I personally think her views on Japanese bisques are overly harsh; but I wouldn't give two pins for an authority who isn't openly opinionated about something. Carry your ax where everybody can see it, instead of pretending you don't have one to grind, and you won't mislead anyone. If you have this book and Nippon Dolls and Playthings: Identification and Values by Joan F. Van Patten and Linda Lau (Collector Books, 2001), you are better equipped to start collecting bisque dolls than most dealers are to sell them.
- Interested in making contact with those who remember the author Genevieve, and/or photographer, Charles.
Signed: Pauline Angione

2 comments about Knitting & Crocheting for Antique Dolls Vol. III (1914-1929) (Knitting & Crocheting for Antique Dolls).
- This is a fantastic pattern book! Lots of ideas, and things to work with. Adaptable to different sizes and types of dolls. The only caveat is that on a few of the patterns you have to improvise a little, and there is little or no gauge information. I've found that I start out with a pattern, and if it doesn't look like it will fit a doll, I'll rip it out and adjust accordingly. But it's a great reference--good for all-bisques, larger bisque headed dolls, compo, etc. The whole series (vols. 1 through 3) is well worth the money!
