SOLD $4,427.00 Sold: Jul 9, 2022 on eBayOriginal Listing Description
One shoe is split and her legs gently bend to the left. Â Questions, comments and offers welcomed. The stand is marked on top but the bottom is solid and unmarked, I have never seen another one like it. Â Number One Barbie is the culmination of incalculable hours of creativity on the part of Mattel management and design teams, Japanese craftspeople and manufacturing, and the management and design teams at Hauser in Germany who produced Lilli doll and made possible the magic moment when Ruth Handler saw the real life form of the doll she had been imagining. Â I consider her a work of art
