Talking Toys of the 20th Century This collector's guide covers talking toys dating from 1878 to 1998. Over 350 full color photos are included. Stock numbers, when available, are included for each doll and animal, as well as values for factory sealed, mint in box, and loose talking dolls. Pull string, battery operated, record player toys, circuit board talkers, and cassette toys are covered. This book features selected photos from the author's first, second, and third editions of her popular R.S. Prussia series, now out of print, as well as brand new photographs. This book focuses on R.S. Prussia china made by the Reinhold Schlegelmilch factories in Suhl and Tillowitz. This edition takes a different approach than her previous books, in that it uses the many themes of decoration when grouping photos.
