With your guidance, I was able to price them and I would need too many to make them an investment buy. They look well-made and attractive and I'm sure you and your 12 year old enjoy your collection. Thanks again for your help.David N.

They are lovely - the Madame Alexander doll company even today does an exquisite job with costuming and detail. That being said, they make and are making a bunch of those dolls, so I am not sure if they are a great financial investment. My twelve year old has 8-10 of them and plays with them - they are a great investment to me because she is enjoying them - you can find them really reasonably priced on ebay or at Tuesday Morning - does that help, David?Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04927070641696466530noreply@blogger.com
