Doll and Figurative Art Collecting is one of the most popular passions in the world today. But how do you start collecting dolls and why do you start collecting?  There is no one simple answer to those questions, but in this episode of The Curious Collector, Stuart Holbrook, President of Theriault's, looks at some of the many reasons that people all over the world begin investing their time and money into collecting dolls. Sometimes, it's a desire for nostalgia, other times, it's curiousity and sometimes it actually happens by accident.  And then once the decision is made, how does a person figure out what to buy, how to buy it and where to buy it.  Again, there are a myriad of techniques, but Stuart takes you step-by-step through the process of not only how to buy, but how to buy dolls that you will want to build your collection around and keep during your entire happy life as a doll collector.
