Cherished Collection, Antique Dolls & Doll Costumes of Madame Petyt

May 5, 2007 in Las Vegas, NV

Madame Andrée Petyt, the elegant European lady whose collection was visited by Belgian royalty, never played with dolls as a child. She came to dolls, she explained, through a love of fashion and an enduring fascination with doll costumes and the history of clothing those dolls personified. This explains the particular vision of Madame Petyt whose extraordinary collection of rare dolls in exquisite costumes is featured in a commemorative book with historic references. 8.5" x 11". Hardbound. 188 full-color pages.
