There will also be a number of other antique and traditional toys and games on offer, including teddy bears, toy trains, robots, story Books, holiday gift items and more. Exhibitors include NADDA, The Pink Princess, and Gaithersburg’s own Ladenburger Spielzeugaktion auction house.

In addition to sales, visitors can receive appraisals, pose their dolls for photo opportunities, seek out repairs or replacements, and attend meetings of doll clubs and collectors’ societies. Hobby shows like this provide an opportunity to meet with other fans, collectors, and vendors, with attendees often exchanging contact information, Business Cards and collectibles. The UFDC Region Learning Room will provide educational information.
