Over 300 color and black-and-white photographs illustrate and describe vintage paper dolls, toys, and children’s books made by Raphael Tuck and Sons.
COLLECTOR’S GUIDE TO RAPHAEL TUCK & SONS: PAPER DOLLS, PAPER TOYS, CHILDREN’S BOOKS by Blair & Margaret Whitton, Hobby House Press, MD, 1991.
In addition to being an invaluable pictorial guide to antique paper dolls and toys, this book tells the fascinating story of Raphael Tuck and Sons’ 'humble beginnings in 1866, its tremendous growth, its world-wide distribution and its production of paper dolls, paper toys, children’s literature and other paper novelties. Suffering the ravages of World War II, the bombed-out company’s struggle to rebuild its flourishing toy empire was never realized, but the lovely memories and this marvelous collection stand as a tribute to the remarkable accomplishments of Raphael Tuck & Sons.' There’s a wealth of information in this early out-of-print book which will benefit the collector, dealer, or historian of antique paper dolls and toys.
8.5 in. x 11 in. hardback with dust cover in very good+ condition. 176 pages.
