Bradford |
...on the museum's third floor sits a five-story dollhouse donated to the museum by Faith Bradford, a Washington D.C. librarian, who spent more than a half-century accumulating and constructing the 1,354 miniatures that fill its 23 intricately detailed rooms.

The story told here concerns two very special dolls-France and Marianne-which were given to Queen Elizabeth and Princess Margaret in 1938, when they were, respectively, twelve and eight years old.

Alte Puppenstuben
von Elke Gottschalk (Autor) 152 Seiten erlag: Bechtermünz (März 2002) |
En Allemand Dies ist ausschließlich ein Buch für echte Sammler mit vielen detailierten Abbildungen welche dann 2-sprachig mit genauen Maßen und Preisen beschrieben werden, und auch aus welchem Material und in welcher Zeit die einzelnen Gegenstände hergestellt wurden. Hinzukommen noch wertvolle Hintergrundinformationen - z.B.wann welche Muster entstanden und warum, wieso welches Material verwendet wurde, welchen Zweck Puppenstuben in den Epochen erfüllten usw. |
Ein schöner und auch informativer Band der das Sammlerherz sicherlich höher schlagen läßt, für den "normalen" Puppenhaus-Fan eher nicht geeignet. |
