1959 blonde PT #1 Barbie SL (EX) She has
reproduction (safe, won't cause green) "gold" hoop
earrings, original black and white striped swimsuit, original
black OT shoes with holes in the bottom for her stand, &
original white sunglasses with clear blue lenses. The
elastic in bottom of her ponytail had disintegrated, so was
replaced, but her hair has never ever been combed through. The
top elastic is all original. Her make-up is perfect and vibrant
with bright reddish-orangish lips. One metal tube in one leg is
missing, but the other is still there. She would still stand on
her stand without problem though, if she had a stand, as the hole
is there, just not the metal tube lining. There are reddish
stains on the tops of her feet from the straps of her shoes,
which are very commonly found on #1 Barbie dolls. She has her #1
booklet (small worn mark on front), but no stand or original box.
I also have photos of her full length, her ponytail from top and side and of her feet to show the
stains from her shoes. If you want to see them, just email me and ask.
Exquisitely beautiful and very hard to find doll! $4,750.00 SOLD
1960
brunette PT #4 Barbie SL (good) No original black and white striped swimsuit
or any accessories. She has her original top elastic in her ponytail but the
bottom one has been replaced. There are a few flyaway pieces of hair here
and there. Her hair has lots of lower curls! The factory stitching
of hair at the back base of her neck drops down in a point to the edge of the
neck hole and the vinyl has separated right at this spot from the factory
hair stitching. Unfortunately, this has created a neck split in this spot.
She has some lip rub to
both lips and the tips of both eyebrows are faded. I see a small scratch mark (a
small dent in the vinyl really) on
the vinyl at the tip of her nose, if I look closely and from a profile. One earring hole per
ear with no green and no splits. Her head vinyl has the "greasy
face" that some late # 4's and #5's get. She has all fingers. She has almost 100%
of her red nailpolish remaining and about 90% of her toe-polish. With a nice
repaint she would be very lovely! $165.00
1961 blonde PT #4/#5 Transitional Barbie SL (very good++) No original black and white striped swimsuit
or any accessories. Both ponytail elastics have been replaced as they were very
disintegrated after all these years. Her ponytail is braided but I can't
really tell if it came from the factory like that or if her original owner did
it many years ago. It doesn't look messy or anything to imply it was
braided by a child. No original lower hard curl left. No missing or
cut hair. One earring hole per ear but a few extra prick marks around each hole
by the ear. No green at all. Her facial paint is very good, with
light blonde eyebrows that are starting to fade. She has red nostril dots
and red lips. One very slight rub to the upper right edge of her
lipstick. Her eyes are a lovely deep blue. No neck splits. She
has the heavy solid body of the #4 Barbie, but as you can see from the photo,
her bangs are more like a #5 Barbie I don't think her head would have been
switched as I purchased her from her original owner. Her body is very
clean Her deep red nailpolish is 100% intact, as is almost all of
her toe-polish as well. No missing fingers or toes. Her bum is marked
"Barbie" as it is supposed to. One small scuff mark in the vinyl
on the back of her right ankle. She's a very lovely doll. Ask to see
a larger photo of her pretty face! $320.00
1961
brunette PT #4/#5 Transitional Barbie SL (very good+++) This very
beautiful doll has the hair, make-up and bangs of a #4 Ponytail but her torso is
hollow, not solid like a #4's would be. Her legs and arms are heavier like
the early ponytail Barbies though. She has really lovely facial
paint with only the very slightest amount of fading to the very edges of her
deep red lips. You have to look close to see this at all. Ask
for a larger photo of the one at the side to see how pretty her face
is! She has one earring hole per ear with no green, however I do see
a very tiny prick marks just on the surface of the vinyl right near each earring
hole. Her ponytail has been retied with dental elastics. She has her
original black and white striped swimsuit, white sunglasses and booklet, but is
missing her black OT heels, stand and earrings. No splits. She has all fingers.
There is a small, slightly brownish spot just above her right knee. She
has about 95% of her red nailpolish still intact and about 60% of her toe-polish
is still there. Such a beautiful doll! $360.00
1961
brunette PT #5 Barbie SL (very good+) No original black and white striped
swimsuit or any accessories. She has the "greasy face"
that is fairly common with 1961 dolls. Her ponytail has the original topknot but
the lower elastic had disintegrated and is now replaced. Lots of pretty
lower curl in her ponytail!!! No missing hair plugs that I can see.
Her face is beautiful with no touch-ups and vibrant paint. Her bright red
lip paint has one chip missing on the upper right hand side. Her eyes and
brows look great. No neck splits or cut hair. Barbie has one earring hole per
ear. If you look inside each earring hole there is a slight bit of green
visible but not very much. You have to be looking for it. Her nail
and toe polish is also excellent. No missing fingers or toes. Her
upper left thigh has some light blue marks on the front of it but most outfits
would easily cover this. She is redressed in a non-Mattel pretty purple velvet
vintage belle dress. She's a very pretty doll, with a few minor problems, but is
excellent for display! $205.00
1961
titian Bubblecut Barbie SL (very good++) No original black and white striped
swimsuit or any accessories. Her hair is a really pretty copper red
color and none has been cut. No missing hair plugs. Her facial paint is
very good with the exception of her red lipstick with has rubs on the upper and
lower lip edges. She has the 2 red nostril dots and reddish-blonde
eyebrows. One earring hole per ear. A very slight bit of green right
at the hole of the left ear. This is not too noticeable. It has not
been treated so using some "Remove-Zit" on it might help to remove or
fade. Also any replacement "pearl" earring (non-metallic) would easily
cover completely. No neck splits. She comes
on a "Barbie" marked body, as she should. No missing fingers or
toes. Barbie's red nail and toe polish is quite good with most of it still
remaining. There are a few small pin pricks in each breast
"nipple" area. This is very easy to cover with any swimsuit or
outfit. No stains on her body. A very pretty early titian bubble!
$115.00
1961
blonde Bubblecut Barbie SL (very good) No original black and white striped
swimsuit or any accessories. She has been redressed in a cute early
1960's non-Mattel burgundy flared pleated skirt and white lace sheer
blouse. She has a very nice tight bubble in a pretty shade of light
honey blonde. I don't see any missing plugs or cut hair.
One earring hole per ear and no green or splits. She does have a
very slight bit of the "greasy face" but it's not too bad at all!
She's just got a light sheen to her complexion. Her brown
eyebrows have a little bit of fading but not very much. She still has some red
in each nostril. Her lip paint is completely nude however. She comes
on a "Barbie" marked body with painted legs, which are harder to find
than the non-painted leg 1961 bodies. There are quite a few
scratches and rubs to the leg paint though, if you look closely. However
the vinyl underneath is almost the same color so it's not too noticeable unless
you look for it. She has no toe polish remaining and not very much
fingernail polish either. She is not missing any fingers but there are
chew marks on them, more so on the right hand. She's a pretty doll and
harder to find with the painted legs. $90.00
1962
brunette PH Ken SL (very good++) He is missing his red swim trunks and cork
sandals. He has his red and white striped beach jacket (played with
condition, could use a brightening and is missing it's "Ken" label)
and his original "Barbie and Ken" booklet. Ken is in great
shape. There are only a few rubs to his hair paint, a small one at the
very front middle and a little bit on the back that isn't very noticeable.
His facial paint is really good too, the only fading I see is a bit to the end
of his left eyebrow. No prick marks, chews, scrapes or neck splits. His
body is clean and in really good condition. $35.00
1962
blond PH Ken SL (very good+++) He has his original very good condition red
and white vertical striped beach jacket (not pictured in photo) and his
"Barbie and Ken" booklet. He is missing his red swim trunks, cork
sandals and wire stand. He is redressed in black and white checked pants (not Mattel). Ken is in really good condition.
He has only the smallest rub to the top middle of his blond hair paint. His
facial painted is almost perfect and vibrant. He has dark brows, bright
blue eyes and light coral lips. I see the very smallest bit of a rub to the very
end of his right eyebrow, and that's me being picky! No neck splits. His
straight leg body is also in wonderful shape, with no scrapes, scratches or chew
marks. He is clean and in barely played with shape. $40.00
1962 brunette PH Ken SL (very good+) He is missing his red swim trunks and cork sandals. He has his good condition red and white striped beach jacket and his original "Barbie and Ken" booklet. There are only a few small rubs to his dark brown hair paint - a very small one at the very front top middle and a spot on the back upper right side. His facial paint is really good too, although there is some paint rubbed at the outer ends of each eyebrow. He has pale coral painted lips. No splits. No prick marks, chews, scrapes. His body is clean and in really good condition. I see a very pale pinkish stain on the top of his left thumb, but it's not very noticeable. It's probably from being stored with his hand against something red for too long. $30.00
1963
dark blonde PT #6 Barbie SL (good) No original red swimsuit, shoes or
earrings. She has a retied ponytail and there are some hair-plugs missing at the
top middle, so that she does have a bald strip across the top when the hair is
pulled into a ponytail. She could use a small re-root to fix this.
Her facial paint is good with no rubs to the brows or eyes that I can see, but
her lipstick is pretty much gone. No green at ears but there are several small
prick marks at each earring hole. No neck splits. She is on the
correct Midge/Barbie marked body that does not say "Patented" at the
bottom, so you know she is a 1963 doll. No missing fingers. Her nail
polish is dark pink and about 90% of it is remaining. No toe polish is
left. No scratches, chew marks or stains that I can see. So she
needs her lips painted and a small re-root and she'll be a great display doll!
$75.00
1963 titian PT #6 Barbie SL (very good++)
No original red swimsuit, red OT shoes or "pearl" earrings (swimsuit
doll is wearing in photo is not included). She has her original booklet included. Her lips, eyebrows and nostril dots
have been retouched. Her lips are a purplish-pink color and are
painted small like many of the #6 ponytails lips originally were. The acrylic paint is
removable with rubbing alcohol, so if you don't like it you could always repaint
them. There are no rubs or chips to any of the other face paint. She
has gorgeous, very full, shiny red hair with symmetrical bangs.
Her hair has been professionally retied in a fluffy ponytail (not
in a hard curl). It looks so great this way! None is cut and no
missing plugs. She does not have any "green ear". One
earring hole per ear. No splits or any nicks in the vinyl. No
"swingy arm" problems whatsoever. She has straight legs
with the correct Midge/Barbie marked body with no major damage or
discolorations. All fingers still there. Her original coral nail
and toe-polish is about 95% still there. You have to see this one
- this gal looks fabulous! $260.00
1963
titian Midge SL (very good+++) Midge is wearing her very good condition original bikini
with yellow top (a bit dingy, could use a quick wash) and orange bottoms, white
OT shoes, has her original booklet and black wire stand. Her hair is pretty and
uncut and has very good lower curl too. Her facial paint is great
with only a slight bit of lower lip rub. Her brows are not faded. One
earring hole per ear with no green and no splits. Her body is also in very
good shape with almost all nailpolish present and about 60-70% of toe-polish. No
missing fingers. Her leg stance is a bit wide, but this can be corrected
with heat and straightening. I find this fairly often on these dolls for some
reason. She's a real cutie! $85.00
1963
blonde Midge MIB SL (very good+++) Midge is wearing her very good condition original
blue bikini bottoms, but is missing her light blue bikini top. She also
has one white OT shoe, but is missing the other one. Her box is in very
good condition with bright clean graphics. No tears or splits in the box.
The original wire stand is missing but she does have her booklet, although the
front cover is gone. Midge has great lower curl that has been re-set. Her
hair has not been cut and there are no missing hair plugs that I can see. Her
facial paint is excellent and not rubbed. No earring holes or neck splits. There
is a pin prick hole in the end of each breast "nipple" and a couple in
between them as well. This would easily be covered by any swimsuit or
outfit. No missing fingers or toes. No stains on her body. Her red
nail and toe polish is in very good condition. Midge's bum is marked
"Midge/Barbie" as it should be. Very excellent condition
doll with the exception of the pin pricks in each breast. $240.00
1963
blonde Midge (good+++) No original blue bikini, white OT shoes, booklet or
wire stand. She has really nice lower curl and no missing hair-plugs. No
earring holes. No brow rub, but a bit of lip rub, mostly in the middle. Fabulous
bright blue eyes! She is on a nice Midge/Barbie marked body with no
missing fingers. She has about 90-95% of her red nailpolish remaining and
about 60% of her toe polish. Just give her a touch up on her lips and
she's great! $40.00
1963
blonde Midge (very good+++) She has her two-piece blue swim suit, but is
missing her white open-toe heels. No stand. Her hair is fabulous -
near mint even! As is her facial paint. No rubs. One earring
hole below each earlobe, so her original owner "pierced" her at some
point. This photo does not do her justice at all, as the lighting was bad.
No missing fingers. She has all her fingernail polish, although very
little remains on her toes. A few stitches coming loose here and there
around the seam of the top half of her bathing suit, but this is common to
find. She has a Midge/Barbie marked body, as she should. She is
clean and in very good condition. $75.00
1964
brunette #6 Ponytail Barbie SL (very good+++) She has her original red
one-piece swimsuit and red open-toe heels. No stand or earrings. There is
one small dark spot just above the left breast on her swimsuit, but I have not
tried to clean and it might come out very easily. Her hair has been retied into
a ponytail as the original elastic was disintegrating. No lower
elastic. She has thick, full hair with none missing or cut that I can
tell. No lower curl remains, although it is not difficult to put in
again. Her bangs are thick and in great shape! A bit of lip rub to
her light coral lipstick on both the upper and lower lips edges, but otherwise
her facial paint is intact and not faded. A very slight bit of greyishness
to the edge of her lip-paint in the corner on the left side. No sure what
has caused this. No green or gray at either ear and she has one earring hole per
ear as she should. She is on a Midge/Barbie marked body with the word
"Patented" on the bottom. No missing fingers. She has about 90%
of her coral nailpolish remaining and about 80% of her toe-polish. She is clean
and in very good condition. I think she would make a lovely addition to a
vintage collection. $175.00
1964 titian Swirl Ponytail Barbie SL
(very good++) No original
swimsuit, shoes or accessories, however she comes wearing a very good condition
1963 "Fancy Free" red and blue sleeveless dress and she has her
original copper-colored metal wire stand. Her hair has been retied into
the swirl and into a ponytail at the back. I have added a pretty red
ribbon over the ponytail. The lower elastic is gone and her hair has been
neatly trimmed by about a 1/2 inch, by my best estimate. It still looks
really nice though. No green ear or any discoloration. No rubbed
facial paint. She has really nice eyebrows and pretty light coral
lips. No neck splits. No missing fingers. She is on the
correct Midge/Barbie straight-leg body with "Patented" on the bottom
of the markings. Her deep coral nailpolish is perfect on her right hand and
missing from 2 fingers on her left hand. Her toe-polish is about 80%
intact. Her right leg is ever so slightly shorter than her left leg, as
these bodies are often prone to being. She's a lovely doll, with the hair
trim being her only real flaw. $250.00
1964 titian Swirl Ponytail Barbie SL (good++) No original
swimsuit, shoes or accessories. Her swirl ponytail has been retied and the
lower elastic is gone. I'm not aware of any missing hair-plugs and the hair
does not appear to be cut. One earring hole per ear. A slight amount of
grayish-greenish stain around each hole. Her facial paint is good. A
bit of fading to the end of each eyebrow. Her lip paint is all there but
there is some discoloration to it. The lip paint has gone grayish in each
corner of her mouth and a bit along the bottom edge as well. The middle of
the lip paint remains coral. It makes for an interesting overall
effect. No neck splits. Barbie is missing the pinky finger from her
left hand. The remaining nailpolish is really good - about 95% intact. Her
toe-polish is about 60% intact. She is on a Midge/Barbie marked body, as she
should be. She would make a great display doll. $195.00
1964
platinum blonde Swirl Ponytail Barbie SL (good++) She has her original red
helenca swimsuit and "Barbie and Ken" booklet but no shoes, earrings
or stand. Her swirl ponytail has been retied and the upper elastic replaced with
a dental band. No lower elastic. No missing hair-plugs that I can
find. One earring hole per ear although there is one small prick mark at each
ear near the earring holes, but they don't go all the way through. No green and
no splits. She has wonderful unrubbed and unfaded make-up paint with nice dark
brows and bubblegum pink lips! Sadly there are a few prick (maybe
chew?) marks on her face. One noticeable one below her right eye on her
cheek and: 5 less noticeable and smaller ones under her chin, 2 small ones on
her chin below her lips. 3 small ones above her lips and below her nose, 2 on
the right side of her nose and one to the right of the right side of her lips, 2
on the left side of her face near the jaw line and 3 more on the left side back
near her hairline, behind her left ear. Please understand that I had to
use a magnifying glass to see most of these "dents". The only
one that you will notice easily is the first one I mention below her right eye
on her cheek. Ask of a larger photo to see better but really only this
bigger one shows up in the photo. It does sound worse that it is. She is
on a Midge/Barbie marked body, as she should be. No missing fingers and no chews
on her hands or body. She has about 90% of her coral nailpolish remaining and
about the same amount of toe-polish left. Her body is in clean condition. She's a
lovely doll with that platinum hair and pink lips! $210.00
1964
platinum blonde Bubble Cut Barbie MIB SL (Very Good+++) She is missing her red OT
shoes and "pearl" earrings only. The booklet is still sealed in
it's original plastic packaging. The box, marked Platinum Bubble Cut, is
in wonderful condition, as is the black wire stand and Barbie's red helenca
swimsuit. She has pink lips that are fading to white around the
edges. This is a lovely doll - her platinum bubble do has oxidized to a brassy
colour, as they often are known to do. It's still a pretty colour
though. Ask me for a close-up of this photo to see her better. She
would be mint condition however her former owner unfortunately left her earrings
in for too long and she sadly developed green ear. It has been treated
with Remove-Zit and has faded quite a large amount! There is only a faint
green shadow at each ear, so the treatment worked very well! Her nail and
toe polish is coral and is not rubbed. No splits, no marks or stains or
chews. Her bum is marked "Midge / Barbie" as it should be and includes
the word "Patented" at the bottom. She is in fabulous shape, as is her box!
$300.00
1964
brunette Bubble Cut Barbie (very good+) No original red swimsuit or shoes, but
she is wearing a replacement red swimsuit. She has nice thick dark brown
hair with no missing plugs and none is cut. One earring hole per ear with
no green or any discoloration. Her facial paint is good with coral-pink lips
starting to fade to pale around the outside edges and in the center. With
a magnifying glass I can see a very small amount of lip paint rubbed off in the
middle indent of her lips, but it's pretty hard to tell! The rest of
her facial paint looks really good. No neck splits. No missing
fingers. This Barbie is nice and clean. Her nailpolish is about 95%
intact and her toenail polish is about 60% intact. There is a pin
prick hole at the tip of each breast. Also there is a very faint small
letter "B" on her lower back. It is light, but there. Her bum is marked Midge / Barbie and has the word
"Patented" at the bottom which makes her a 1964 or later Bubble
Cut. She's a very pretty and very gently played with doll. $120.00
1964
brunette Bubble Cut Barbie (very good+++) No original red swimsuit or
shoes. Very nice thick, full dark brown
hair with no missing plugs and none is cut. One earring hole per ear with
no green or any discoloration. Her facial paint is really good with pale pink lips
and nice dark brows. No neck splits. Excellent Midge/Barbie marked body
with no missing fingers. Her bum has the word "Patented" at the
bottom. She has about 90% of her red nailpolish remaining , but
almost no toe-polish left at all. No pin pricks, no scratches or
scrapes. She's a beautiful doll, who was only very gently played with. $140.00
1964
titian Bubble Cut Barbie (good) No original shoes, but has red swimsuit (not
pictured). She has
beautiful crisp red hair! No missing plugs or any cut. It is not a big,
pouffy
bubble, but sits closer to her head than most later Bubble Cuts I've seen. Her
facial paint is perfect with no rubs and her lips have faded from dark coral to
lighter peachy coral. One earring hole per ear and no neck splits. This
doll was barely played with at all, and it shows. However the downside to
that is that she spent too many years with her original earrings in and has the
dreaded green staining at each ear. It is far better than I would have
expected for the length of time the earrings were in though (40 years!). I
have treated it for the last week with Remove-Zit stain remover and the green
has faded quite a bit. It is now about 1/4 of a inch in diameter at each
ear and is pale. From the front it is not noticeable at all (ask for a larger
photo to see this). I think with another couple of weeks of treatment, it
could be faded even more, but that is up to the buyer if they wish to try.
Barbie's straight leg Midge/Barbie marked body is in wonderful condition.
She has all fingers and toes, and no scrapes, scratches or bite marks. Her
red nail and toe polish is almost perfect. She would be a mint doll if it
wasn't for those darn earrings being left in! $80.00
1964
brunette Skipper SL (very good+) She has her very good original red and white
swimsuit and red flat shoes. Unfortunately there is a split in the top
front of each shoe. Skipper's hair is long and uncut. I don't see any
missing hairplugs, but the hair texture is a bit coarse. She has nice coral lips
which are unrubbed. Her left brown eyebrow shows a bit of fading. No
earring holes, no green, no splits. Her straight-leg body is in very good
condition. No missing fingers and no chew marks. Her right leg is
slighter shorter than her left leg, which is not uncommon. The only thing
that's a bit odd about this Skipper is that her head is slightly out of shape,
so that she appears to be glancing up and to the right a bit. She's still
very cute though and in really good condition. $45.00
1964
brunette Skipper SL (very good+) She has her very good original red and white
swimsuit. Missing her red flats and headband. Skipper's hair is long, shiny, and
quite thick. There is a small section in the back, bottom along the
hairline where a bit of hair has been cut, maybe a 1/2 inch section right in the
middle. There is still hair plugs there but they are short This
affects about 8 plugs of hair, tightly spaced, and you can't tell at all without
lifting up her hair . Skipper has nice pinkish-coral lips, that have a
very slight rub to the edge of the bottom lip. Her brown eyebrows are
faded at each outer end. No
earring holes, no green, no splits. Her straight-leg body is in very good
condition. No missing fingers and no chew marks. She's quite cute and
would make an excellent display doll. $35.00
1964
brunette Skipper SL (EX) This is a near mint doll. Skipper
includes her excellent condition original red and white swimsuit, red flat shoes
(no splits) and brass headband. Her uncut brown hair is long and silky, like
new. She has nearly perfect facial paint with buttery beige lips and
bright blue eyes. No pin prick marks at ears, no green or gray stains and
no neck splits. Her body is in excellent condition. This
doll has barely been played with and then only very gently. Skipper would make an excellent addition to any vintage Barbie collection.
This
photo really does not do her justice - she is quite a lovely doll! $75.00
1964 Allan SL
(very good) He is wearing his original striped jacket in
good condition, but is missing his original blue shorts, cork sandals and stand.
He has been dressed in a pair of late 60's multi-coloured Ken shorts. His hair
paint is really great, with hardly any rubs, and what few there are you have to
really look for. His facial paint is also great, but there is some fading
to the tip of his left eyebrow, as seems to be common in these dolls. Allan's
straight-leg body is in very good condition. No neck splits. Played with
condition but only gently. $25.00
1964
Allan SL (good) No original outfit (he is not wearing the jacket shown in
the photo). Some rubs to his hair paint, as you can see in the photo. His facial paint
is also very good - the only exception being that the right eyebrow is starting
to fade at the outer end. His lips are pale beige-ish pink. No neck
splits. He has a very good condition straight-leg body. He will come
to you redressed in a 60's non-Mattel outfit of gray slacks and a black and white hound's-tooth
blazer with black buttons. Played with condition but still great for
display. $15.00
1965
light blonde American Girl Barbie BL (very good++) She has her original
striped swimsuit (not shown in photo), but is missing her turquoise OT shoes. Her hair is light blonde and has no missing hair plugs that I can
see. Her bangs might be trimmed back a bit as they seem a little short to me,
but I could be wrong. No
earring holes, no green, and no splits. Her facial paint is very good and
un-rubbed, with butter yellow lips. The vinyl of her head has darkened a bit
over the years so the skin tone of her face is a bit darker than her body, but
when clothed this is barely noticable. She's still very pretty! Barbie has all
10 fingers intact and each one still has coral nail polish. Her bendable leg
body has a split over the right knee, and that knee no longer bends. The left
knee works fine. There are some chew marks on the right foot as well, but
nothing too bad and a shoe will still stay on fine. The left foot is fine. No
missing toes on either foot. Her bum markings
are indented, as they should be for a 1965 doll. She's a beautiful doll! $235.00
1965
honey blonde American Girl Barbie BL (very good++) No original swimsuit or
shoes. Her hair is really nice with no missing plugs that I can see and it
is uncut. It is a dark blonde color with a hint of a strawberry blonde
slight tinge to it. No earrings holes and no green or stains. She does
have the start of a very small neck split below and between her chin and left
ear area. It is maybe 1/8 of an inch long, if that. As long as
you don't pull her head off, it should be fine. I have not tried to repair
it. Her facial paint is fairly good, although there is some visible fading
to her right eyebrow and a bit of rubbing to the tip of her left eyebrow as
well. Her lipstick has faded to buttery yellow except for a bit in the
middle of her lower lip which so far is still coral colored. Her knees
both still bend and click. She is not missing any fingers or
toes. She has about 70% of her coral nailpolish remaining.
There are some chew marks (dents) on the outside of her left heel/ankle area but
it's not that bad. About 9 or so small indents. Unfortunately there
is a split on the top of her right foot. It has been glued back together
by the previous owner. A shoe will still sit fine on either foot.
The other thing I should mention is that the doll has been made to
"ride a horse" or something at some point and so her legs now spread
at the hips if pulled apart, which they shouldn't. So something was broken
inside each hip joint when her legs were forced open years ago. This is
not obvious unless you pull her legs wide and see that they open easily when
they should not. She still stands fine and there is no damage visible on
the outside of the doll. This description makes her sound worse than
she is - she is really a very lovely American Girl! $205.00

blonde Midge BL (EX) She has her original striped swimsuit, light blue
headband (faded to almost white) and turquoise OT heels. There is a tiny hole in
the swimsuit at the top left side where the turquoise edging meets the knit
part, otherwise the swimsuit is in very good condition. Midge is in excellent
shape overall. Her headband has never been removed from her hair, although time
has faded it. Her hair is uncut and curls nicely. Midge's face
paint is unrubbed and not faded. Her pretty lips are light red. There is one
extra pinprick hole at her right ear and two extra prick marks at her left ear.
No neck splits and no green or any staining at all. Her butt marks are
raised up, not indented. No missing fingers and her nailpolish is about
80% still remaining. The only real flaw I can find is that her left knee no
longer bends and holds and there is a split in the vinyl on the back of this
knee that is about 1/4 inch long. The right knee bends and holds fine. Her
feet have no splits. There are a very very few teeth or prick marks in each
ankle, maybe 3 or 4 small ones on each foot so it's not too bad. I'm
trying to be thorough in my description but overall this doll really is
excellent. She's also very cute! I think any vintage Barbie collector would be very happy with
this doll! $270.00
1965
brunette Ken BL (good++) Ken is missing his original blue jacket and cork
sandals, but he does have his original red swim trunks. He also is wearing
a red and white striped beach jacket (no Ken label, so possibly a Mattel
knock-off of the 1962 jacket). His painted hair is in great shape with paint
missing only from the very front top middle of his
"bangs". 'There is a small paint chip from the end of his
right eyebrow as well. There is some yellowing discoloring right around
the place where the neck meets the head - I think it's glue residue. I
could not get it off easily, but since it's under his neck it barely shows at
all. There are 3 small scraped areas on the plastic of his chest - one at the
right nipple area, one about a 1/2 inch below that and a slight one on the left
side about 1/2 inch below his left nipple area. Both knees still bend and
hold, however his left knee has a split across the top that has been glued back
together, so it might not be a great idea to bend the left leg in case it
re-splits open. No missing fingers or toes. No green or stains. No
chew marks. $70.00
1965
Allan BL (very good+++) Missing his cork sandals only.
He has his red beach jacket with the white "A" on the lower left side
and his blue swim trunks,
in played with but good condition. There is a small dark mark on the middle left
front side, but I have not tried to wash it, so it may clean up easily.
Allan is in really great shape. He has only a few small rubs to his hair
paint. His facial paint is not rubbed at all. No prick or chew
marks, no green, no splits. He has all his fingers and toes. He
knees both bend and click fine. There's really not much wrong with this
guy! Bendable leg Allan is harder to find. $130.00
1965
brunette Skooter SL (very good+++) She has her original two-piece swimsuit
(in played with condition but still good) and red flats. Her pigtails have
been retied with new elastics and are missing the original red hair ribbons. The
white elastic waistband on her swimsuit bottoms has come loose right at the
front middle, so it could probably use a couple of quick stitches to re-attach
and look better. The edges of the red and white striped swimsuit top are
curling up a bit, which is common. Skooter has a really cute face with no facial
paint rubs. Her lip paint is light pink. No earring holes. Her hair
has not been cut and no missing hair plugs that I could find. No neck
splits. No missing fingers. Her straight leg body is clean and in
very good condition. She's a very nice doll! $40.00
1966
blonde Francie BL (very good+++) She has her original blue with green and
pink squares patterned swimsuit in played with
condition. I see a small hole in the swimsuit in the lower left crotch
area. Francie has very nice hair which has not been cut. It has good
lower flip curl. Her facial paint is excellent with no rubs and pretty
raspberry lips. She has nice blush too. There are a few lashes missing
over her left eye, maybe 1/2 of them on the inside, but it's not obvious at all.
Her lashes are all there and look great over her right eye. No neck splits and
no green. Francie's body is clean and her knees bend and hold
tightly. There is a small hole in the top layer of the vinyl on her right
front ankle. There is also a small gray dot that I couldn't wash off about an
inch and a half above this. Otherwise, I can't find anything wrong with
this doll! She's really pretty and I think any buyer would be happy with
her. $110.00
1966
blonde Francie BL (good+++) She has her original white with green and
pink squares patterned swimsuit in very good condition (she wasn't
wearing it when I took this photo.) She has very cute, uncut hair, although her
bangs are a little uneven, which is non uncommon to find. Good rooted
eyelashes and none appear to be missing. There is a faded spot on
her forehead where the skin vinyl is paler, above her right eyebrow. This
could be stained with artist markers if you like, to match the rest of the skin
tone, but her bangs do cover it to some extent. I took this photo with the
sun shining right on her face, so the faded spot is more noticeable. Ask
for a larger of this picture to see it better. It's really not that bad and if
you want me to try to touch it up with artist markers before I send her, just
ask. Her facial paint is great with no chips or fading. She has
blush. No earring holes or prick marks. No neck splits. No missing
fingers. Her knees both bend and hold a pose tightly. Some chew marks on
both ankles and there is a hole in the vinyl on the outside of her right
ankle. No missing toes. She's really not as bad as she sounds here, and
would make a great display doll.
She's a cutie! $60.00
1966
titian Skooter BL (very good+) Missing shoes, stand and red ribbons
from hair. She is wearing her very good condition original two-piece
swimsuit (not shown in photo, but I'll include that non-Mattel dress with her.)
The loop thread at the back of the denim shorts that the hook goes through has
come unattached on one side, so it will need a tiny repair. I
have retied her hair into her two side pigtails. No earring holes, no neck splits, no missing fingers or toes. Her original lip paint is now
faced to very pale pink, but her brown eyebrow paint looks good. She
even has a bit of blush left. Her body is in good condition, but her head
and arms are a darker tone than her torso and legs. When she's dressed,
this is not very noticable at all. Her knees both bend and click fine. There are a few very
minor chew marks on each foot/ankle, but, again, it's not that noticeable. Other than that, she's really
cute. Harder to
find doll. $35.00
