There is a LOT of stuff in this LOT. I can only upload 12 pictures so message me for more. In particular more photos of Barbie herself-as you can see she looks pretty awesome. Zoom in on the LAST 5 photos and you can read her hand written detailed inventory of EVERYTHING included in this sale, which is in 5 pages of inventory. This is a NUMBER 3 Mattel circa 1959 Barbie, Brunette ponytail hair, poodle bangs and she has a pony tail BUT her mom turned it up into a bun many years ago that has relaxed a bit but I hesitated to undo it. With THAT said, that is the only’flaw’ I can see if you can even call it a flaw. She has most of her nail color, face color looks great, no earring green on ears as she has been stored without earrings on. I think there is only ONE set of pearl earrings in the lot which would explain why she wasn’t wearing any. In a way that is great, it saved the vinyl. Some ebayers have messaged me that this is a’transitional body’ from the #2 doll, with a # 3 head– that the factory used previous parts in subsequent years. Others say there were the same exact body except for the foot, from #1 to #3. This particular doll is. Completely original, no changes made by owner. As this is a big ticket item I want buyers to know what they are getting with NO issues, so bear with us, this listing is a bit wordy. ONE 1959 # 3 Brunette Barbie DOLL in BLACK AND WHITE bathing suit appropriate shoes, white sunglasses, one pearl earring (missing the other pearl earring) in Excellent condition. 2 Additional striped Bathing suits, ONE B/W and one RED/W and a 4th Coral bathing suit– part of outfit #923. 1 Original Barbie black vinyl case with handle and inside with drawer to hold accessories PLUS hangers for outfits and some extra hangers. 1 box of shoes, small accessories for outfits. 1 drawer- part of the original case holding all of her other accessories. THREE ORIGINAL Barbie / Ken Pink catalog Booklets showcasing various outfits/prices, (one booklet clean of marks, the other two marked by owner). ONE insert 45 Record advertisement (no record). 13 Official Numbered Outfits as seen in the booklets. The accessories etc are in little boxes as I do NOT want to misplace any, only some were in the photos. Anything missing from each outfit is mentioned in the inventory pages. Of the 13 numbered Outfits, 4 appear complete, the other 9 are missing an item or two maybe. Needed to complete the 13 catalog outfits are: one pearl earring, the stud type, plus another pair of the same although not really necessary as they can be used for either outfits, One little wax apple, one little handheld plastic vanity mirror, one soda straw, one bowl with yarn and knitting needles, one pearl drop necklace. IN addition there are some Barbie labeled items in this lot that are not part of outfits- dark’Apple’ patterned sheath dress as used in the Easter Parade outfit not in the 1961 catalog as well as several extra shoes (4 prs plus some singles), a silver purse, long gloves and a belt. NOTE the BLACK SUNGLASSES listed by owner as missing/parts for #923 coral bathing suit outfit had one arm re attached. NOTE the White Straw Hat listed as missing by owner for #986 Sheath Sensation is in fact in the accessories box. IN addition: SEVERAL additional misc’mystery’ outfits m. Ade by her mom, a seamstress-such as red wool coat/fur collar, Red Flapper style fringed dress. Some -like the gold lame pants and top and the other two pc pants outfit, unlabeled store bought. A total of 5 Other OUTFITS and misc items like fur stole and a piece of white rabbit fur collar. Condition of the clothing excellent, some things look like new. RE Messages pro and con of the idea of’TRANSITIONAL #2 body #3 head Barbie, there has been a lot of feedback from Barbie folks. (I did recently learn that it was not until the #3 was the the option of Brown eyeshadow on some dolls as well as blue). THIS doll body had JAPAN in a box on foot AND has nipples–Debated topics but definitely desirable details. So whether there was such a thing as a transitional body, the first three Barbie dolls had nipples. Other experts argue that the only thing distinguishing the #1 body from all the rest– The HOLES on the bottom of the feet with copper tubes for the stand. This is not an inexpensive LOT so we want to represent it honestly AND accurately as possible, so I appreciate ALL YOU WATCHERS understanding and putting up with a bit of confusion as we have been quite inundated with information about this unusual but wonderful doll!
