Παρουσίαση

From across North America and into the arctic reaches of Canada, dolls of the native tribes are cherished representatives of the diverse people who have adapted to life in each area. Whether made for childrens' play or as tourists' souvenirs, their colorful dress, ornamentation and materials are enjoyed by doll collectors and Indian buffs alike. Here over 150 different dolls are grouped according to their geographical origins. Iroquois, Seminole, Cheyenne, Navajo, Eskimo and other Indian dolls are among them, shown along with photographs of the people and places they represent. Also, Skookum dolls, which were made as commercial items, are here. Value references are provided for some of the dolls. Together, the dolls make an inspiring group and display the diversity of mankind. (From the publisher)
