The reason I like this paper doll and costumes featured in this book of and on Rudolph Valentino because even though it has some age attached to it, it is in perfect condition. There are no pieces missing or any writing within it either. Besides having the paper model/doll of Mr. Valentino, there are many of the costumes he wore in his most famous movies; the colors on any and all are very brilliant and vibrant. I don't know the background of Mr. Tom Tierney who put this book together but he could easily become a fashion designer of the highest order either on Broadway or in Hollywood. Dover Pres, the publisher of this 42 year old book is to be commended also for issuing little gems like this to add to a person's collection which by turns is historical and entertaining as well for any person, at any age.Read full review

I bought copies of this gorgeous paper doll book for members of my book club after we all read a biography of Coco Chanel. (Every woman can use more paper dolls.) The only problem is that the book is too beautiful to cut up! Great price and great illustrations. Also has a brief biography of Chanel and her couture.
Paper dolls are iconic. I will keep them as a collector’s item
