A few rooms are still available at the historic Waldorf Astoria hotel, site of the weekend festivities. Theriault's has a special rate of $299.00 that is virtually unprecedented in New York at this magical time of the year. Want to join us at this special price? Instead of calling the hotel, call Janet Saxe or Jamie Lanza directly at Theriault's at 1-800-638-0422 and they will make all the arrangements for you. Just a few rooms remain so make sure you make your reservations as soon as possible. Florence will be conducting her beloved private hands-on seminar on Friday, the 21st between 10:00AM and 4:00PM that will highlight the subject of "Jumeau, Bru, and The Great Pretenders." This is an intensive and educational workshop that will give collectors hands on experience with many of the rare dolls featured that weekend along with Florence's decades of knowledge to help raise your collecting awareness. The maximum number of attendees is 25 and a few spots remain...call Janet Saxe or Jamie Lanza at 1-800-638-0422 to reserve your place today. On Saturday evening, following the grand Theriault event "Let The Music Begin" featuring over 300 of the finest and rare antique dolls, we will host an "all are welcome" reception with legendary fashion designer and doll artist Robert Tonner along with Florence Theriault and Theriault President, Stuart Holbrook. This "Wine and Walk" event will take you on a personal tour of Tonner's collection as he talks about the vintage pieces from his own personal collection of iconic America Fashion dolls being auctioned the next day and the influence they had on his own contemporary work. This is open to the public and will take place between 7:00PM and 9:00PM. The holiday season in NYC. Could any place be more romantic or perfect? Like Paris in the spring or London in the fall, the charm and excitement of the city will be in full bloom. The Waldorf Astoria puts you right in the heart of it all to be an easy stroll to Rockefeller Center, Central Park, as well as all the fabulous shops whose windows and buildings will be decked out in full holiday spirit. What better time to enjoy a weekend of dolls! The catalogs will be mailed late next week so be sure to place your orders today. If you are not a subscriber already, subscriptions are the best option for assuring all of the catalogs arrive in the future at a significant savings.
