TREASURY OF KATHE KRUSE DOLLS – Album 3 , by Lydia Richter, HP Books, 1984 English Edition, Fisher Publishing Co.
Over one hundred illustrations, many of them full-page, supplement a fascinating text. 'This scarce book is the result of the author’s research with Kruse’s daughter in the Kruse workshops….Richter carefully teaches the collector about types of doll heads—when they were produced and what collector criteria are important….In the biographical section, Richter discusses how Kathe Kruse made small Soldier Dolls and Doll-Room Dolls. Another section is devoted to the Kathe Kruse Show-Window Dolls. This book is an indispensable reference work for the collector and a charming exhibition for Kathe Kruse Doll lovers.'
