How can I protect my Annalee dolls from fading?
As the days grow longer and the sun shines brighter, one concern rises to the top of our list, and that is fabric fading. All dyed fabrics are prone to fading, to some extent. The sun is one of the biggest culprits, but certain artificial lights can take their toll as well. We’d hate to have everyone stop displaying their Annalee Dolls, but do make these suggestions: Limit the exposure time of dolls placed near windows. When possible, display the dolls under indirect light. In cabinets, be selective about the use and time of display lights. Collectors looking to preserve their dolls may want to consider this option – buying two of each. One for display, and one for posterity.
