My mother has a HUGE collection of antique dolls (mostly from the 1920's) that she inherited from her aunt. She has added a few dolls from family & friends when they have traveled to other countries and from various auctions. She probably has over 500 dolls. Not ONE American Girl doll. (She does have a porcelin Sleeping Beauty doll that I got her in Disney-Paris, however.)
