Very Special! 1960 #3 Brunette Ponytail Barbie with gown, box, mic + 1994 repro

Sold on eBay September 11th, 2023 for $999.00 (1 bids)
eBay My mom collected Barbie dolls since they first came out and this was the prized possession of her collection. This is a brunette No. 3 Barbie from 1960. Model #850. She has blue eyes, brown eyeliner and red lips. Also, red polish on fingernails and toenails. She has original gold hoop earrings, and her ears are in great condition (no green around holes). She wears the 1960 Solo in the Spotlight original black gown with tulle and red rose. She has her original pink chiffon scarf and long black gloves (there is also one extra black glove I'm including) and a plastic silver microphone. She also comes with a pair of original white sunglasses with blue lens and black, open-toed high heels (which have separated in the front – see photo). Her face, arms and feet are perfect. Her body smells like crayon and faded to an ivory color. Her beautiful, soft, shiny hair features poodle curl bangs and a ponytail, which seems to be original. Her hair may need re-styling. This doll was displayed but not played with (see photos). She has a small crack on her torso near her right hip (see photo). And a crack at the front of her neck and head is glued to her body (see photo). My mom put a black ribbon around her neck, which covers the crack and looks stylish. She also comes with a beaded necklace (not sure if this is original or not). Her body markings are: Barbie Pats.Pend. (c)MCMLVIII by Mattel Inc. Her heal says Japan. The original box is in great shape with only one top corner separated. Box is dated 1959. The Barbie booklet is marked MCMLVIII (1958). She also comes with a white metal doll stand. In this lot I'm also including the 1990 Barbie trading card for the 1960 Solo in the Spotlight doll, the card is in perfect condition. And, included is a 1994 Special Edition Reproduction of this 1960 Solo in the Spotlight doll and outfit. The box is slightly crushed, but the doll has not been removed from the box and is in perfect condition. My mom loved her dolls and I’m hoping to find a new owner that will love this one too. I'm not a Barbie expert but I have tried to be thorough with the photos and description. Please look closely at the photos and ask if you have any questions. This doll is sold as-is and is non-refundable. Thanks for looking! I appreciate your interest. (Condition: Pre-Owned)
