eBay Barbie's unusual marking: This bubblecut Barbie has had one owner (me). The markings say 84 Barbie (R) Patent Pending by Mattel. The body is tan and solid, indicating it is likely a #4 ponytail body with a bubblecut head, something that appeared to happen as styles transitioned. The earrings have bled as is common with original Barbies. There are numerous videos on YouTube offering de-staining solutions. Barbie comes with her original red suit, cork-heeled white sandals.Midge, Skipper and Scooter. The condition of these dolls is very good. Like Barbie. they are wearing their just from the box outfits. Scooter and Midge both come with their original boxes, Skipper has her original stand and comb.About the clothes. This collection has 27 outfits documented in 12 Barbie brochures which, as far as I can tell, include many from 1963 and earlier (Barbie). Later additions include costume items (Guinevere, Little Red Riding Hood) + Skipper outfits Brochures include one for Allan.What makes this collection unique is the number of accessories that go with the clothes--the yo-yo with Skipper's blue sweater/slack set, the nylons with Barbie's skater outfit, the tray and drinks with her Date Night dress, the green shoes with her prom dress, the red mittens and plaid bag with her Winter Holiday outfit. Most of the outfits are in very good condition and come with nearly all the accessories listed in the brochure (there is no alarm clock w/ Barbie's PJs).One dress needs a seam resewn (the Corning Ware dress), Skipper's Flower Girl outfit could use a wash.
