Original Listing Description

Vintage Mattel 1962 Barbie Cardboard Fashon Shop made in the U.S.A. is in excellent condition. The outside cardboard enclosure is still nice with only minor punch marks on one of the sides but does not go through the cardboard (see picture). The plastic black handle is original and one of the holes where the handle goes is a little oversize from use and I guess the child put some tape on the area so the handle would not come out, however if you turn the handle sideways you can remove it. There is no reason to remove the handle because the other pieces to the playset will slide right out of the enclosure. The table and two chairs are in excellent condition. The Barbie cardboard manikin is excellent but has two creases, one at each leg at top of cardboard support (see Picture) which does not affect the manikin to stand up. The Fashion Shop model entrance is excellent. The curtain is the original one that came with the playset (needs cleaning). The model's stage is excellent. The cardboard mirror is nice but has wear and needs cleaning. The show case is very nice but has a bow at the top seam on the clear plastic also looking through the inside the left back door has a crease down the door where it is folded (see picture). The corner of the shop which has the manikin head in the window is in excellent condition. The front of shop building is excellent, the window clear plastic is excellent, and the inside is excellent. There are a total of 8 Fashion Show Cards and 8 Fashion Model Cards in excellent condition. One of the model cards was written on with pensile but erased. There are 3 magazine cards in excellent condition which are Barbie Magazine, Style Magazine and Sub/Deb Fashions. This is a hard set to find in excellent condition.
