For sale is a vintage Barbie doll from the
estate of local lifetime Barbie collector, Catherine Gilliam, who meticulously
assembled a large, stunning, carefully organized and protected collection of rare early
Barbies, outfits and accessories(along with some convention and other rare pieces)—many of
which I will be listing. An expert collector, Mrs. Gilliam was a Barbie
convention Senior Judge, a charter member of the NBDCCSC, and chairman of the
1994 Barbie convention in Birmingham. The last picture shows this collector's credentials and a 1994 picture of her at the Birmingham convention with Mattel execs (NOTE: These credentials and photo are NOT included in this listing.)
This is a No. 3200 Walking Miss America Barbie Doll in her original box. I believe that it may be a 1972(box copyright) doll, but you experts will be able to discern this better than I. Since I am not a Barbie expert, the pictures will provide the best sense of condition, but I welcome questions. This piece has no odd odors; the box has some creasing along the lower flap. NOTE: This has the handwritten signature of Barbie dress designer, Carol Spencer, in marker on the cover. I have no COA for the signature, but it matches the images of her signature I have seen online. Examine it closely yourself. This will be very well-packaged in a sturdy shipping box, and I have an outstanding record shipping fragile collectibles.
At your request, I will be happy to create a combined shipping invoice on multiple purchases, subject to size/weight restrictions or any other eBay policy limitations. However, eBay's Global Shipping Program may limit combined shipping for international buyers. Payment is expected within 3 days of purchase. Have fun.
