Summary
A red plastic ring binder containing some of Betty Cadbury's notes about her collection. This one is labelled 'Dolls 446 -'. Each page contains a handwritten description of a doll, with the date purchased, price paid and the seller's name and address. One page also has an illustration of a similar doll (cut from a book or magazine) stapled in, along with a description. The plastic of the binder is quite sticky, possibly due to deterioration.
