Original Listing Description

Here is a 1964 Barbie and Ken Little Theatre. It is in good, but definitely played-with, condition. Even though the outside has wear and tear, the inside of the theater when it is open has very little (if any) visible damage. The curtain is in excellent condition and raises up and down with ease. Everything that came with it originally is here. There are 2 plastic pieces to sturdy the folds in the side of the theater when it is set up, 3 cardboard scenery back drops with scenes on each side, 4 cardboard scenery side pieces with scenes on each side and 1 cardboard tree (with summer on one side and autumn on the other side), 28 cardboard tickets, a cardboard bed, a cardboard table, a cardboard throne, a cardboard straight chair, the Play Scripts book (all 88 pages are there with no pencil/pen marks) and the Assembly Instructions book (all 16 pages are there with no pencil/pen marks). The following wear and tear and damage should be noted. Please examine all photos!The Cottage Interior backdrop has a small area on the left side where the printing has torn off. There is a light crease in one King Arthur’s Adventure ticket. The legs of the table are bent and 1 is taped. The straight chair has a torn rail between the legs.The bed has a 1.25” tear in the cardboard at the bottom. The throne has a .75” separation at one corner. One of the sides of the theater is torn from the corner of the stage door and up. On the outside, this side is missing some small spots of the printing at the bottom. On the outside of the other side there is a small square of printing missing on a tab at the top and the printed paper of that tab inside the theater is raised up from the cardboard. On the outside of this side are some small spots that are missing the printing at the bottom and a few up the side. The Assembly Instructions book is dog-eared on the first 2 pages. The Play Scripts book has a 2.5” tear on the lower front cover. The back cover is dog-eared, has some small tears on the side, and has a crease lengthwise in the center. The spine has a tear of about 1.25” at the bottom. Pages 1 to 27 and pages 60 to the end have a small, light mark at the bottom of each page where it has been wet. On the front of the theater, the original plastic latching piece to keep it together when it is closed up has broken off and a piece of clear tape has been used to hold it together. Also on this side at the bottom, the printed paper is raised up from the cardboard in a few places and one spot has clear tape on it. On the back side of the theater, there are several spots of printing worn off and a few spots at the bottom where the printed paper is raised up from the cardboard. The very bottom of the theater has some marks where it has been wet. (Condition: Pre-Owned)
