My favorite girl, this 1968 Barbie has full head of deep, rich brown hair with no missing or thin plugs. She is missing two lashes at each inner eye. Her facial coloring matches her body, with the slightest fading at the tip of her nose. Her facial paint is complete, with no rubs that I see. She has no earring holes, no green or discoloration of any kind. No neck splits.
The limbs and waist of her TNT body are tight, and her legs click and hold three positions. No missing fingers or toes, no bites, no chews anywhere on her beautiful body. There is one tiny pinprick on each rear thigh above her knees. She has nail paint on all fingers and toes, which I have not tested. Her feet read Japan, her body is © 1966/ Mattel, Inc./ U.S. Patented/ US Pat. Pend/ Made In/ Japan.
Barbie's three-piece swimsuit is in excellent condition. There are no snags, runs, or fading in the top. The loose threads you see are from interior edges. The bottoms have no marks, stains, or fraying. The elastic waist is still stretchy. The green vinyl belt has the gold clasp buckle securely attached. She has what I believe to be the original pink bow in her hair.
Barbie will come to you in a white storage display box with a clear cover. The stand will also be included. Please check all photos to see if she's right for you.
