We are an authorized, direct-from-the-publisher retailer of NEW books. Our titles are ON HAND and available for immediate shipping. This book is based upon the collection auctioned by Theriault's of Annapolis, Maryland on September 11, 2004. The extraordinary vision of the doll fashion designer Mel Odom continues to delight collectors year after year. Yet few collectors know that Mel Odom also owned his own collection of vintage American fashion dolls of the 1950s. These are highlighted in this auction, ranging from early Barbies to rare Cissy fashion models. Also included are mint-in-box #1 Barbie, a superb private collection of more than 100 very rare 1950s' Alexander-kin fashionable children and Cissettes, an extraordinary collection of fabulous and nearly impossible-to-find early boxed costumes for 1950's Alexander dolls, and a fine group of near-mint hard plastic dolls from various manufacturers.
