The Alexander Company has long been considered a world premiere doll maker. Founded by Madame Beatrice Alexander in the early 1920's, the company continues to produce beautiful high quality dolls today. Here are some of the Madame Alexander dolls from Karen's collection:
Above on the left is a doll commemorating Queen Elizabeth II. Next to her is a member of the Palace Guard.
The two dolls on the left represent Queen Isabella and Christopher Columbus. On the right is Pocahontas.
This beautiful Madame Alexander doll above represents "Catherine de'Medici". Karen says her family from Italy may actually be decendents of the Medici family.
