Dolls in Motion

Theriault, Florence

The 77 dolls presented in this book are a single family collection assembled during the first third of the 20th century, representing dolls from 1890-1935. Since each doll was identified by source at the time of its collecting, the book is a valuable guide for today's collectors. Included are one-of-a-kind folk dolls as well as those sponsored by cultural organizations such as the Haskell Institute.

The Moritz Gottschalk firm of Germany was the premiere dollhouse maker during the late 19th and early 20th century, but collectors have never had a reliable way to identify their dollhouses. Marianne and Jurgen Cieslik, the noted German doll Historians, are changing that as they have located the original factory illustrations of Gottschalk catalouges from the years 1892-1931, and are presenting them in there latest book, Moritz Gottschalk. More than 600 authentic archival illustrations of Moritz Gottschalk dollhouses are presented, and they are conveniently arranged in order of production.

In this book, the glorious automata and mechanical music of the 19th and early 20th century are truly "playing their parts". Playing their mechanical parts, they perform extraordinary motions and issue compelling music that is as transfixing today as when first created. 150 splendid examples of these automata and musical boxes, 1780-1960, are shown in this book with detailed descriptions of their motions, music, historical background, and useful commentary. Each example is photographed in award-winning color, many with detailed insert photos, and each is identified by maker, country of origin, value, and date.
