3 comments about Classic Shirley Temple Paper Dolls in Full Color (Classic Shirley Temple-Paperdolls).
- Yes there are 2 dolls that look just like Shirley Temple age about 6. Yes the dresses are pretty and colorful. Even accurate to her time era & quite possiable out of her own everyday childhood wardrobe If that is what you want great I hope this book makes you very happy.
I admit I was very disappointed that NONE of the dresses or outfits or acceseries are from her movie costumes that's what I'd been expecting and It should really warn in the description not movie costumes If I'd known that I would have passed on it. I hope those of you who got what you wated in this have hours of fun and bonding time. Those of us imagining something else are now fairly aware of what we'd get hopefully knowing that you'll get what it is that'd make you happy.
- If you're a Shirley collector, the Classic Shirley Temple Paper Dolls in Full Color belongs in your collection. This is a copy of an authentic publication from the hey-day of America's favorite child star.
This would be an cute gift for an adult or child!
- This is a beautiful book. It is large and colorful with cute pictures of Shirley and many cute outfits. I cant wait to give it to my daughter for Christmas. There are two different Shirley Temple templates you can cut out. One large and one small with dresses for each. I know we will have hours of fun dressing up Shirley.

3 comments about American Studio Glass: 1960-1990.
- "American Studio Glass 1960-1990" is a scholary and engaging look at the development and current state of this relatively new art form. Through experience and research the rapid evolution of art in glass form is described through history and from factory to studio. The acceptance in the high-art world, in museums and among collectors is documented in interesting and authoritative ways. The footnotes add considerable value to the text. This is a must-read for seasoned, new and future collectors as well as for curatorial and gallery staffs.
- Dr. Lynn writes with authority and clarity and explains a generation's search to learn to manipulate glass and with it, to make art. We look forward to her next book, SCULPTURE, GLASS AND AMERICAN MUSEUMS.
- I quote below a review of Martha Drexler Lynn's "American Studio Glass 1960 to 1990":
"Martha:
I have seen your new book "American Studio Glass 1960-1990" by Hudson Hills. It is fabulous, beautiful, wonderful, exciting!!!! Much much congratulations on a SUPERB JOB. As always, you are a credit to our profession.
Wow, you are incredible!

2 comments about St. Petersburg: The Hidden Interiors.
- We visited St. Petersburg several years ago and were blown away by the belle epoque portions of the city. So many of the interiors were truly amazing. A significant part of what made it all so amazing was its existence surrounded by the painfully dreary balance of the city- thousands of dilapidated, identical, falling apart apartment blocks. I bought this book thinking it would have great pictures of the major buildings. It did. However, it goes well beyond to include other interiors of architectural and historical significance. Rather than being just a coffee table book, it is a wonderful architectural history that provides hours of interesting reading and viewing. My only wish is that the author had had a larger budget to have included more photographs and covered even more territory. That said, this book is more and better than 95% of books of its ilk.
- This visual tour of St. Petersburg's fine attractions reveals interiors from all periods of its history, from lesser-known sites such as the Russian National Library to those which have received more attention. Photographer Leonid Bogdanov has taken shots especially for this book: many are full-page displays, and all provide special views of Russian interiors dating from all periods of Russian history. This lavish title will delight both fans of Russian history and students of interior design.
