The Art of Doll Restoration

 
Gary Sowatzka has one of the best Doll Hospitals in the United States, and is always there to help his patients. He has the artistic talent and the knowledge to repair and restore those beautiful family heirlooms that have seen better days. As a master doll doctor for the last 20 years, Gary has repaired dolls, which by many, would have been thrown out.

If you think your composition doll is beyond saving, admit your doll to the Doll Hospital, and let Gary look at it, you may be surprised at what the end result would be. The doll will be able to be shared and loved once again. Not only does Gary restore the doll, but also Sowatzka's Doll Hospital offer wigs, eyes and clothing that can replace lost or damaged originals. The wigs come in mohair, human hair or synthetic fibers, depending on the original wig. Eyes are available in glass, glass paperweight, and plastic. Each outfit is made in the style of the original clothing, with the utmost attention to detail. Many times, the original outfit can be duplicated exactly.

Contact Gary Sowatzka at the Doll Hospital for a free estimate on the cost of the repair, and restoration of your favorite doll. No repair is too big or small. Gary can also let you know the value of your doll before and after repair. He takes before and after pictures to document the repair. On some dolls the improvement is so dramatic that customers don't believe it is their doll - pictures help convince them. The pictures also allow him to reproduce the original artwork as accurately as possible.

Gary's work is in high demand, so don't delay.  Contact Gary for a free estimate on your repair.
