If you want the next big thing in collectibles, think about buying vintage dolls. There are many reasons why these lovely items are such good collectibles. One is that, beyond their basic monetary value, they're nice to behold and make great conversation pieces.

Another positive aspect of collecting vintage dolls is that they have a really interesting and unique historical value. Different types of dolls, whether mass marketed or rare dolls, were made at different periods in history. Getting an Barbie doll can encourage you and/or your children to look into the background of the doll and learn about what was going on in history at the time it was made.

The price of antique dolls varies depending on age, condition, and rarity. Their values have increased throughout the years and continue to do so. Consequently, owning antique dolls will prove to be quite an investment. Not only is an older doll a nice way to decorate your home, but it will prove to be a financial bonus in years to come once you decide to sell it.

There are many places that offer good deals on vintage dolls. Among the most popular places to purchase them is through the internet, where there are many retailers that offer them for sale, as well as a variety of auction sites where people place them for bid. One of the best things about purchasing dolls through the internet is that you can do price comparison and research about a specific doll's value in the current market all at one time.

Some great places to find some of these older dolls include flea markets and antique fairs. These work well because not only can you physically inspect the dolls for quality, but also you might be able to bargain with the seller and purchase the doll a bit cheaper. However, if you aren't very educated about the dolls prior to attending one of these functions you might not know a great value when you see it.

No matter where you purchase your dolls, be sure and keep them in pristine shape. To maximize the value of your investment don't forget to keep all clothing, accessories, etc. Also make sure you store your dolls properly, away from moisture and sunlight, to keep them looking new.

Abima

Abima is out of control! He's got his hand in the cookie jar, and his mind on the next adventure, which is probably going to involve bouncing off the walls and knocking over expensive stuff. He only knocks over the expensive stuff. Not to worry though. This adorable doll is very protective and would always watch out for you.

Babo

Babo will protect you and what Babo lacks in mind power, he makes up for in love. He's everybody's best friend. He will stick with you to the end and when something scary happens, he will send you a nice greeting card from wherever it is he runs away to. A very curious, mischievous creature, Babo may need some guidance and parenting, so make sure to bring him with you to as many places as possible.

Deer Ugly

Deer Ugly lives in the forest where it's nice and quiet. But deep down, he's thinking: "Please take me home with you!" The nice quiet forest is great, but Deer Ugly wants to see the world...YOUR world! He wants to explore the fantastic places you frequent. Like that room with the desk and computer?

Cinko

This adorable doll fears the water. The best way to keep Cinko momoko is to sit him down next to you to watch TV. Watch something about dry stuff. Maybe sit him on a towel. Those are dry. Or tell him your best joke.
