The Sun Shines for Us All: The Friendship Dolls from Japan

In this publication that accompanied a 2015 exhibition at the Brauer Museum of Art, curator and scholar Terry Kita tells the story of beautiful Japanese dolls created in the early 1920s that came to America as part of a good will cultural exchange organized by an American missionary. This book contains original research on the dolls and is the definitive publication on this subject. The book s lovely design is a nice complement to the precious look of the vintage dolls, five of which were included in the exhibition.
