McMasters
Auctions:
Displaying your Dolls with the Collectible Carrier
At
McMasters Worldwide Productions, I used the Crystalline Cases to display
the vintage dolls at our Premier Doll Auction in March. The Crystalline
Cases allow the bidders a better view of all sides of the dolls without
having to remove from a box or bag. It protects the hair from being
messed by the bidders hands and the Crystalline Cases hold the dolls
accessories so they are not lost or misplaced by the bidders. The snapping
noise made by the Crystalline Case increases the security of the doll
and accessories. I think the ability to stack the Collectible Carrier
is great for Collectors and Dealers and the Crystalline Case being UV
protectant is an incredible asset.
