Barbie has a beautiful face. Her lips were faded and had paint loss so a light color wash was added for display but it could use another touch up as it is starting to fade. She has no neck splits and no nose nips but was treated for green ear. A bit of green remained as shown so was color washed for display. Color wash can be removed with soap and water if desired. Her hair is full and uncut with no missing hair plugs, just needs styling. The yellow ribbon in hair is not original. She’s on a Midge/Barbie straight leg body in good condition with some fingernail and toenail polish visible. She could use a gentle cleaning to remove light ink? Spots here and there on legs. The swimsuit is in nice display condition. A wonderful addition to any vintage Barbie collection! All items are from a pet and smoke free home. Thanks so much for viewing our auctions!
