Madame Alexander, The Rodney Waller Collection: Part Two-March 17, 2019

March 17, 2019 in Naples, Florida

Time has come for Beatrice Alexander, signature American dollmaker and designer, to take her rightful place among antique dolls. Nearly 90 years have passed since her dolls first appeared, and for more than a half century she stood as a symbol of excellence, ingenuity, and marketing mastery in the world of American dolls. Collector Rodney Waller noted this many years ago, and began a quest to find the rarest of the rarest of her dolls, prizing originality and excellence of condition as well as rarity. This is Session II of his two-part auction, featuring the mid-century dolls, 1948-1970, of Madame Alexander. Softbound. 8.5" x 11". 208 pages. $69.00
