La Poupee Modele: Authentic Patterns from the Magazine: Vol 2 1876-1885 by Francois Theimer

This reference contains authentic patterns from the French children's magazine La Poupee Modele, 1876-1885.

For nearly 70 years this French children's magazine issued doll patterns in their monthly magazine. Collectors know they are invaluable but they just can't be found.

Now Francois Theimer, noted French doll historian, has compiled 113 patterns from the magazine for the nine-year period of 1876-1888, which are presented here with English-language instructions.

Included are fashion and bebe costumes, as well as delightful accessory surprises for a child to make. A miniature doll book, for example, is re-created here, ready for you to cut and assemble. A must-have book.

This item includes a 32-page softcover book inside a hardcover slipcase along with pattern plates for the 113 patterns.
