[Sca-cooks] alternate sources?

[Kirsten Houseknecht]

heh.. Barbie is the wrong scale.. most of the serious dollhouses and
miniatures are done in one to one scale.. that is
one inch to one foot..
a life size doll for a dollhouse, is therefore about 5-6 inches tall  (i
have one in porcelain, lovely.. but OW they cost)

incidentally the current edition of Dollhouse collector? or is it Dollhouse
miniatures.. has
"Tribute to England".. and a fully authentic Tudor series of houses........
including a fully to scale smithy...
<sigh>
