I was told this was never removed from box. I have no way of knowing if that’s true. I did not remove her from the box for inspection. The face looks great with no damage that I can see. There is cello over her face, which I assume is original. There is polish on the hands and feet and no flaws visible. The booklet is present and the band that holds her legs in is broken. On the back of her legs there is a discoloration line (pictured) from that bar and unsure if it can be removed. The wrist tag (Made in Japan) and not been taped back on. The box has wear. The bottom appears to have water damage. There is some creasing, warping and wear, mainly to the edges. There is a rip where the band originally went into the box. Box is dated 1964. Box is slightly dusty and I did not wipe it off. Could brighten up a little with a quick wipe if wanted. My knowledge of Barbie is limited, but I think this is the short hair version.
