Hi! I'm glad you are visiting my site! |
This web site is designed to help you revive or relive the joy and love you once had with your paper dolls! Or, maybe it will spark within you a new found interest in paper dolls that will lead to a satisfying hobby.
While there are no paper doll pictures here, you will find many sources for a huge number of paper dolls, both old and new. These sources will lead you to an incredibly vast number of paper doll pictures to view - many more than I could possibly put on my site. Hopefully, the information found here will save you time in your paper doll searches. If you should decide to buy one - or a few - or even start a collection (YEA!), maybe it will help you save some money, too.
Many newer paper doll booklets and reproduction booklets are sold in online auctions and on bulletin boards. Many of these are still available in stores. Book stores such as Barnes and Noble, Borders and Amazon.com are great sources. For the adventurer, you can look for them at grocery stores, Big Lots, '$ Stores,' discount stores, garage sales - in many unusual places! On this web site are many sources for paper doll catalogs and websites, too. Often they are cheaper than auctions and bulletin boards. Also, you can search the internet. Try Google! Google "paper dolls" or try searching for that favorite doll you used to have by name! You very well may find her! (Be warned: some sites returned in Google and internet searches may not be legitimate or 'safe' - the sources listed on this site have been found to be safe, to the best of my ability and knowledge.)

Please note that sheets of paper dolls and some booklets may even be autographed by the artists upon request.
If a booklet or an artist that you are looking for or wondering about is not mentioned here, it does not mean the book isn't out there or the artist's work isn't available. I have tried to think of and mention all that have come to mind. Please email me concerning any omissions.
The important thing is that you know there are many paper dolls available and many are reasonably priced. They are just waiting for you to find them and give them a new home!!!
And give them lots of LOVE!
