A Collector’s Guide to Old Cottage Toys
the dolls of Margaret & Susi Fleischmann

Old Cottage Dolls Guide Book
The Dolls of Margaret and Susi Fleischmann chronicles the background of the Fleischmann family
who came to live in Rustington , Sussex , England.
from their homeland of Czechoslovakia in 1939 shortly before the outbreak of the 2nd World War. Not long after their arrival in the U.K., Margaret Fleischmann became a widow. She decided to make dolls for a living, and so began the doll making business named
‘Old Cottage Toys’.
This title traces the development of the dolls from the early cloth examples, to the successful range of small, beautifully dressed costume doll's with moulded heads, which are now eagerly sought by collectors.
The book includes identification of each Old Cottage Doll by description and colour photograph, a rarity guide, plus suggested methods of storage and repair, plus much more.
