Whether you're a seasoned collector or just beginning your journey, this early edition Ponytail Barbie offers a piece of history and a touch of nostalgia that’s hard to come by. Key Features: Hair: This Barbie doll showcases her signature poodle curls and ponytail, which, while in need of a minor touch-up, still exude the vintage charm of Barbie’s early years. The soft floss hair and flocked head are in good condition, making her a standout piece in any collection. Face: Barbie’s face is beautifully preserved, featuring her original blue eyes, brown eyebrows, brown eyeshadow, and red lips—all intact.

Body: This doll features the heavy, solid rubbery body typical of early Barbies, which still retains its signature crayon-like scent—a hallmark of authenticity. She showcases her original red fingernails and toenails, adding to her allure. Her body markings read: “Barbie™ Pats. Pend. ©MCMLVIII by Mattel, Inc.” and “JAPAN” on her foot. Accessories: Black & White Zebra-Striped Swimsuit: The iconic swimsuit that started it all—an essential piece of Barbie history. Black Mules (Open-Toe Shoes): Stylish and sophisticated, these shoes complete her classic look. White Sunglasses with Blue Lenses: A chic accessory that adds a touch of glamour to this timeless doll. Condition: This stunning Barbie is in fabulous condition, aside from the small marks on her face, with no missing hair plugs, no green ear, and an outfit that has been well cared for over the decades. The swimsuit and accessories are in excellent shape, further enhancing her value as a collector’s item.
