Original Listing Description

Vintage 1960s Mattel Ponytail Barbie #3/4 Transitional Doll in #972 Wedding Day Set Blonde Ponytail Barbie #3/4 Transitional Doll: For your consideration is a vintage and original Ponytail Barbie doll marked, "Barbie™ Pats. Pend. © MCMLVIII by Mattel Inc" on her bottom and "JAPAN" on her right foot. She has an earring hole in each ear, and there is a dark around the earring hole, but it does not appear that she has green ear. Her earrings were removed; however, they will be included with this doll. Barbie does not have any neck splits or nose nips. Her makeup is still bright with only minor fading/rubs to her upper lip, eyelashes, and eyebrows. Barbie has a flocked head and soft, thick long hair in a top knot ponytail. All her limbs are tight. Her red nail and toe polish is intact with only some chipping on the ends. Note: Barbie's gown was not removed for this listing to avoid damaging the delicate sheer long-sleeves on her wedding gown. 1959-1962 #972 Wedding Day Set: This was the first wedding gown made for Barbie and it was produced for only three years. The tagged gown is stunning and in excellent condition. The satin underdress with a heart bodice is pristine with no tears, rips, or stains. The tulle overlay bodice with long sleeves and double tier skirt with a train still has the silver glitter accents throughout. There are no stains, rips or tears unless there is not supposed to be a "v" at the neckline. The tulle veil and tricot gloves are whiter in color compared to the wedding gown. Barbie is wearing a light blue garter with flower accents on her left thigh and is holding a flower bouquet with lace and ribbon trim. Her white open toe shoes have a split on top of the left shoe that is marked "Japan." The vintage pearl necklace is beautiful but not original to this outfit/doll (see close up of latch for possible identification) Please view all photos provided as they are a large part of the description.
