A Conversation with Florence Theriault - A Paradigm Shift in Collecting 2000-2025

Описание: Theriaut's President Stuart Holbrook chats with Florence Theriault in this deeply personal and candid look at her 55 year career in auctions, dolls and collecting. Spanning the early 1970’s until today this three-part Podcast allows Florence to recount with humor and sentiment the rise of Theriault’s from its humble beginnings along with the stories, characters and adventures that she's experienced along the way.  While a beloved figure in the world of dolls, we see a human side of Florence that few have come to know, especially a new generation of collectors who may only know her through her popular YouTube video channel. Part Three explores the current generation of collecting and the dramatic changes in not only how people collect in the marketplace but how they engage the hobby as a whole. Florence gives her thoughts as to these changes, what she loves and what she misses from the past. The episode finishes with Florence “writing a letter” to her younger self, what she would tell her. As well, her thoughts for new collectors or those just starting - offering sage advice for the future.
