Original Listing Description

This listing is RESERVED for Sharon. Please do not buy this unless YOU ARE SHARON. Up for sale is an amazing vintage Barbie doll lot. This listing is HUGE so bear with me because this description is going to be a long one! PLEASE LOOK CLOSELY AT THE PICTURES. I AM HAPPPY TO PROVIDE MORE PICTURES & ANSWER QUESTIONS UNPON REQUEST. I always do my best to identify and point out flaws, but I am not a Barbie expert, so if you are unsure about something, please contact me before bidding. I always strive for 5 star feedback~ Here we go!This listing includes: 1. Blonde Barbie doll #3. This girl is beautiful! She has evenly faded to an all over soft, creamy white. Her hair is in its original set~ she does have a few flyaways. Her makeup is nice and she has brown eyeliner. She has all her fingers & toes and the red polish on the tips looks nice to me. Barbie has a pinhead size nick on her abdomen, which is circled for you to see. She has what looks to me like a mold seam (its not a crack) under one arm, I have no idea if this is something that’s actually a flaw, but I did circle it for you to view. I see one pin tip size spot on her hip (also circled), and a pin tip spot on the back of one calf (circled). She has a pin head size green ear spots that are easily covered with earrings. 2. Original TM box~ The box is not in the best condition. All the corners on the graphic half of the box have split and have been taped. There is browning on both halves of the box. The graphics also have browning. This box has been around the block, but it doesnt smell weird and its kept Barbie safe for many years! 3. Original pedestal and wire stand~ Marked with an R. There are no chips, but it does have scratches on it. The scratches can be viewed in the pictures. 4. Original TM Roman Holiday #968 outfit~ The set includes a TM coat, dress, belt, purse, glasses, shoes, hankie, and necklace. The set is missing its hat, compact, comb, and eyeglasses case. There are no rips, stains, or holes on the dress and there is no Barbie tag inside the dress. The outer fabric of the coat is free of rips, stains, or holes, but the white stripes aren’t bright white, they’ve yellowed a bit. The coat has all its buttons. I think the stripes would clean up nicely, but I don’t wash my for sale Barbie clothes, so I will leave that choice for her new owner. The red lining is in pretty decent shape for how delicate it is. There some splits on the lining, but they’re not frayed and I personally think its not a bad lining at all. If you would like pictures of the splits, I’m happy to provide them, I just didn’t have the room to include every little detail. The belt is in good condition. It has one hole, the vinyl is still pliable, and it fits Barbie like a glove. The white clutch is in good used condition. The glasses are in good used condition. The shoes are deep navy blue and they’re in good used condition. The hankie is in good condition. The pearl drop necklace appears worn. It just looks old to me. 5. Original TM Nighty Neglige #965 outfit~ This set has a robe and nightgown. The robe has loose hems on the arm cuffs but its in otherwise good shape. The nightgown is in good condition and the elastic has somehow remained stretchy! I cant tell if the bead is missing. I can feel a bead and I can see what looks like a tiny top of a bead, but it’s not an obvious bead (if that makes any sense). The felt dog is in good used condition. 6. Original TM Sweater Girl # 976 outfit~The sweaters and skirt all show wear. The outer sweater doesn’t have any big holes, but there is piling and it looks a bit fuzzy. The inner sweater is missing 1/2 of one snap and theres another snap that 1/2 of it was pulled out of the sweater. There isn’t a hole where it was but you can see the original thread that the snap was sewn on with. It also doesn’t have any big holes but it does have piling and it looks fuzzy. The skirt has two light brownish spots on it, one on the front and one on the back. These look surface to me and I’m pretty sure these would be taken care of with a spot clean. The set comes with its original knitting bowl, book, and scissors.7. Original TM Evening Splendor outfit~The dress is untagged. The zipper runs smoothly. There are a couple of metallic threads that are poking upon the bust line. The coat could use a pressingI see one pin head size spot near the bottom of the lining. Its otherwise in good used condition. 8. Untagged Clone or Homemade outfit~ Extremely cute! I added this one in because Barbie looks so beautiful in it! It comes with a fabric clutch and orange Japan Barbie mules. 9. Original Barbie booklet insert~ The back of the booklet has a hole, tape on the back, and it does not have Gay Parisienne. 10. Original earrings~ They’re unbroken, I’m not sure what else to say about them. 11. Original swimsuit~ It could use a wash to brighten the white stripes, but its otherwise fine. It comes with Barbie’s original black Japan heels and white cat eye sunglasses. This is a unique lot that would be wonderful for a collection! If you have any questions, please contact me.
