Filled with exclusive color photographs of nearly every doll designed by Marie and produced by the L.L. Knickerbocker Company since 1991, this book is the first ever to gather together the extensive collection of more than 500 dolls. All the information collectors need is provided for each doll, including year of introduction, edition size and sculptor, making this the ultimate guide to Marie Osmond's dolls. As an added bonus, DOLLS Magazine editor Nayda Rondon tells the behind-the-scenes story of Marie's lifelong love of dolls. Based on exclusive interviews with Marie, her family, friends and colleagues, the narrative reveals the important role dolls have played in Marie's life from her earliest years, and presents the history of her involvement with the L.L. Knickerbocker Company and her close relationship with QVC. Accompanied by never-before-published personal family photos as well as photographs of Marie's store and television appearances, the book is filled with personal memories, and heartwarming anecdotes that Marie shares with her collectors for the first time. This anniversary album is, in fact, Marie's gift to her collectors. In her introductory letter, Marie writes: "Your stories and passion for collecting invigorate me, and serve to strengthen my resolve to continue sharing my own passion." [The book] commemorates the shared excitement and enthusiasm that links Marie Osmond and her multitude of fans." - from the inner front jacket flap. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 002106
