Vintage 1970s Barbie -- I have been unable to properly ID her forever. but I will just list her & perhaps the long time barbie experts will know for certain. details: - This doll is similar to a prototype vintage barbie selling on ebay currently that was owned by a former mattel executive. So since she looks the same & has similar qualities she may be prototype. the auction is 172578387424
- She could be a rare doll or could be a hybrid. what is unusual is she came from original owner (exactly as you see her)& the head is solid in the socket (movable not frozen but pretty solid & flush & doubt it could be removed properly) & her coloring of her head & face are exact as the body (light colored pinkish) & so flush in the socket. She has bendable legs & just gorgeous skin tone. here are her details:
- She is a gorgeous PLATINUM Blonde with a beautiful face Hair is gorgeous silky sheen straight with a side part. Does not look as tho it has ever been in pigtails
She look similar to Busy & also similar to FUNTIME Barbie (european Market) -- but here are her body markings
- Here are her markings. She came from original owner & her body matches her head exactly in coloring
her markings are: c1966/ MATTEL, INC./ U.S. & FOREIGN/ PATENTED/ OTHER PAT'S/PENDING/ (THEN IN a different unusual raised mark-) MADE IN/TAIWAN
- So guessing possibly a hybrid transitional European Busy barbie or Funtime --(without the added markings of Canada)
- perhaps just a prototype as the other one is since she has the same exact face & is so beautiful & great condition
- She is gorgeous, her hair is beautiful & her face is as well. She has no issues -- it is as tho she came directly out of a box. She is gorgeous in every way. all legs & arms move, legs click 3x. no green just a beauty!
- She comes with everything you see in the picture, her outfit is 1975 best buy fashion #7414 patchwork skirt & cropped blouse plus all the busy barbie items you see including a brown plastic TV, a record player & a carry case with decals.
- She is sold as is, beautiful but as is since unable to ID & she could be transitional or hybrid....
