Russ & Treasure Troll Coloring Books

These are troll coloring books. Funny little story about the one on the left. I found it at a yard sale digging through a box full of books. I asked the lady how much money she wanted for it and she said I could just have it. You all know the old saying, "One man's trash is another man's treasure".

Children's Troll Books

These two children books were made by Scholastic in the 1990s. I had Ralph Trolls New Bicycle when I was a child and just had to buy it again. It seems like the things I once had are my most prized possessions of all. After all, my love for trolls begin when I was a little child.

Debra Clark - Book, Autograph, and Knickerbocker Troll









This is one of my favorite parts of my collection. I've been looking forward to sharing this with everyone. This post contains several pictures that all come together as one great piece of troll memorabilia.

The troll identification book was written by Debra Clark in 1993. Within its pages, on page 120 to be exact, is her very own Terry Knickerbocker Hand Puppet Troll c1964.

I have that troll! Can you believe it? Yeah, I can't either. The troll in the picture above is her troll in the price guide - and it belongs to me now. And, to make it even better, I have a tag that came with the troll not only signed by her but with a written message assuring it is indeed the same exact troll pictured in her book. The back of the tag has a troll stamp "of approval".

Take a look...

Troll Identification Book and Other Troll Books




Here are some more troll books.

The one on the left is a troll crochet pattern book.

The one in the middle is a Norway Troll book written by Arthur Stavig. It is autographed by the author - see additional pictures. And, no, I'm not Jim. That was the previous owner or possibly one of the many owners of this book. I can't understand why an autographed book made out to someone ended up being sold, my guess is it's a lost book. What a shame, but my gain.

The one on the right is yet another identification guide book written by Susan Miller. This one contains
all black and white pictures.
