Vintage NO. 4 Barbie Doll with 1961 Case, & 23 Detailed Original Outfits/Extras
SOLD $849.99 Sold: Jan 16, 2024 on eBayOriginal Listing Description
eBay I used all my pictures of 24 to show these and a video. Need more, just let me know. This is one of the best No. 4 Barbie and her clothes for an original 1960 doll I have ever had the honor of offering for sell. This complete set of items had one child owner who valued and loved her with it showing with the great condition everything is in. Everything you see in the pictures and video is what comes together. Video shows the rest of the outfits not in pictures, inside of case, and the doll in more detail. Doll has no green on ears, no hair damage. Each picture has the complete outfit with the items it came with. Each outfit and items with it have each been verified as original Barbie marketed wardrobe items from a variety of Barbie books that had detailed color pictures. On the index card in each picture are the details and also lets you know if anything is missing or has a known flaw. A knife, scissors, and a few necklaces are mainly the things missing. Some of the necklaces or a bracket might show as missing, but is listed under another outfit...I reference them as "floaters" among the pictures if a necklace could complete another outfit. In one outfit the gloves are missing, but there is a pair in the accessory set. All the outfits are in good condition with the exception of one....the sweater outfit. The sweater has some holes as shown in the picture and the blouse has one in front. Skirt is good and all the extra things are with it still.These items are in great condition, but are over 60 years old. Things like elastic in the outfits has gotten aged on some. A few snap threading have started to become loose even though still in place. The Solo long gown sometimes has fabric dandruff from the fabric used to make it. The clothes are clean with good color, but some of the white items have become lightly soiled looking in appearance from age. These items with care could be cleaned as well as the elastic replaced with care. A choice only a new owner should make. The case is in good condition with normal aging. Most all cases that have been played with time start to get places where the card board lining shows at seams as shown in video. The color on this 1961 pony tail Barbie case is good. This case does not have a drawer in it like some to hold shoes, hats, etc...This No. 4 brunette Barbie is BEAUTIFUL! She came with hoop earrings. She has no fading on her body like the first Issued dolls 1 through 3. All her saran hair is soft including the bangs and original with no places missing. Hair looks to not have been combed on or original pony tail removed. Notice over wrap of original hair style at pony tail start. Nail polish is still on fingers and toes. She has the vintage markings on her hip with patent pending, roman numerals, and Mattel. All these markings are shown in detail in video. She has no body damage at joints. Very clean used doll so very well taken care of. In her baggie is her shoes, sunglasses, bottom of original stand and bathing suit with her. In each picture of her outfits, I have them with the name of the outfit and extra details. EVERY ITEM has been verified from Barbie book pictures. All zippers work, cardboard insert lining is still in the chef hat in the Barbie Q set it came with, Some index cards data of being tagged clothes was after the picture of the clothes were taken. All the outfits are the first outfits ever issued for Barbie when she came on the market. In the extra's photo with the hangers, there is an original Mattel map. Some of the items in that picture look to have been placed with all the original items just because they were loose from a later family member who had no idea what it went with, but were marked as Mattel items. All the bagged clothes come in the baggie as labeled for you just as they are separated out. These items have not been tampered with as repaired, no replacements from repaired, etc Everything is in original condition and original marketed pieces, NO reproductions. If you have reviewed all the pictures, read all the details, and still need to ask questions or for any extra pictures, please do. I have as much information as possible and details, but everyone has certain things that are important to just them as a collector. I offer an open book for asking for anything information wise or pictures. NO REFUND. This is listed as a used handled doll with normal play wear and normal aging of items expected for it's age by someone who took care of it.If you are a new Barbie collector looking for a very nice vintage doll with clothes to start your collecting, this doll is perfect for you because of all the original detailed outfit items....23 sets, most complete with the bonus of a fantastic condition doll. It would make a great gift set also for someone who loves Barbie of any age and does not have a vintage Barbie. Everything in the pictures and in the short video come with this doll. Serious offers considered with review through original owner.I ship priority, well packed with insurance, and after eBay finishes their processing. (Condition: Pre-Owned)
