   I own all of the Patsy Moyer Doll Identification & Value books, and I am never disappointed. The photos are always so wonderful, and the information very helpful …(especially when Patsy identifies the more obscure collectible dolls).

   Also,the all the Moyer books are printed on quality paper, etc…

   As any Moyer fan will tell you, once you buy one volume of Patsy’s books, you will want to go back and buy ALL of her other volumes!

   There are so many dolls out there, that truly, an author would need to compile all the information in many (many) volumes,– which is exactly that Patsy has done, throughout her career.

   By the way, Patricia R. Smith was the original author to have started the trend in compiling doll information into many encyclopedic hardback “Volumes” (except that Patricia called her books “SERIES” rather than “VOLUMES”). Infact, I believe that Patricia Smith started her doll encyclopedias way back in the 1970′s!

   Patricia Smith’s very first “Series” are now hard to find , since they’ve been out-of-print for so long. (I was able to find all of Patricia Smith’s early doll Series at a second-hand bookstore, many years ago).

   Anyhow, after Patricia Smith retired, that’s when Patsy Moyer took over the legacy (ie: to place all the doll information into encyclopedic volumes).

   I believe that Patsy Moyer has done an outstanding job, since Patricia Smith has since left us, and I’m sure it was hard to fill Patricia Smith’s shoes.
