Add me to your favorites list- new items added weekly. Vintage 1st Issue Blonde Barbie Bubble Cut. This early bubble cut has the “Barbie” only body and the telltale greasy face and red lips. Also, she has that tight bubble cut hairstyle. She is all original having no repaints, no neck splits, no green ear (ever), and no missing hair plugs. Face paint looks perfect, nail polish is about 80% there. Body is clean, the left arm is swingy, however. The right thigh has some tiny specks that may be from the original mold process because they feel like they are in the vinyl itself. Swimsuit is clean with nice white stripes. Booklet has no writing or missing pages. Look at the pictures and if I have left anything unanswered, please ask. As always, from a smoke/pet free home. Check out my other.

This is a GORGEOUS blonde #5 from 1961. Her hair is pretty good but the long part is thinned and she has lost her hard curl at the end. Her ponytail is wrapped with her hair. Still very cute and great display quality. The red SS is from later releases. Original 5s came with black and white “zebra” SS but i don’t have one for her! She looks just as amazing in red. There is some loose threads that can be tucked in better. I didn’t want to hide the edges. They are still in tact and the whole thing is very clean. Barbie stamp with R, signaling a number 5 body that goes with our girl’s head! What you get?? Her makeup is mostly untouched. She had no lipstick so I repainted her original red! Her eye brows were a bit faded as well. I touched them up too. She’s really amazing! ? Pretty Red swim suit, circa 1960s. ? Black “Japan” mules. ? Clear Doll stand. I haven’t had her very long, only about 5 months, so that may change but she’s a gorgeous girl. No green, no nips, no splits, no missing digits! A small area of pink on inside arm area left arm (in pics). Small pinkish tone on right wrist from behind (see pictures). Some small pricks near ears. I started to correct them but they are not really noticeable on display. Right foot is a smidge shorter than the left. (see last picture with Japan Stamp). ? Also look at pictures! I may miss small details from time to time. As with all these very old dolls, things can be overlooked. ? This girl is beautiful. And I’m sure you will think so too! ??? Smoke free home but pet friendly. I will happily send more images or answer any questions! I do not alter my items unless I specifically say so. I will always bee as transparent as possible as possible.

It’s real hard for me to capture how beautiful her hair is. It’s such a pretty pretty color with great curl and bangs. As you can see more so when you zoom in with a camera, she does need her lips retouched to that pretty pale pink, which still has a little bit there. Her fingernails and toenail polish are very nice. Also that blush type color. She has those gorgeous turquoise eyes pretty eyebrows. The first and last photo represent her hair color the closest. No green ear, no neck splits no haircut no missing digits no nose nip. She does have a faint red on her legs. I think she was dressed in a red outfit for many years I did not try to clean that or try to get that off. I don’t find it distracting. She’s on the correct Barbie only body. She is wearing her original black and white zebra swimsuit. She just needs her lips touched up. I took photos with both the flash on and off. Please see all photos for the best description even though her hair colored is so hard to capture check out all the other Barbies listed.

She has the white lip style and comes in an original vintage swimsuit. She’s preowned vintage. This style Barbie came out in 1964. Body marked Barbie patent pending. This Barbie needed some TLC when I found her. She is georgous beyond measure, but review all photos because she is beautiful, not perfect. Her hair is all her original hair. It may have been cut a little at some point in her life, so review the length. I did need to reset her hair and her swirl. Her makeup is all the original, except her white lips were fading, and I retouched them in her original color. I used chalk pastel and satin varnish to seal. All of her limbs are tight, she had no green ear, and no neck tears. &####127775; Thank you for looking!!

From my personal Barbie collection…. Her shoes are new Mattel reproductions. Pending body is extremely nice and unblemished, joints are tight. Barbie had a spa visit with Heartwhisper and she had her hair re-tied, face paint freshened, nail polish redone and was treated for a light case of green ear…. There is still a very, very light shadow, but it really is not very noticeable, and you do not have to worry about it ever getting worse because it was treated. She is wearing new “safe” earrings. She is really stunning with her Lucy red lips and red polish! The original box is in very nice condition for it’s age and displays well, very solid and clean, no split corners, tape or any other damage… It is a great box! Please look at the pictures and feel free to contact me if you have any questions. From my SMOKE FREE HOME.
