Early Barbie Dolls–make Money Collecting Them
Barbie got her start in 1959.Barbie dolls are
Collecting these early Barbies is a fascinating hobby and finds can be made in garage sales,flea markets and second hand stores everywhere.The average person has no idea of what an early Barbie looks like or that it is worth quite a bit. If you want to collect early Barbies carry a magnifier with you. With this you can read the copyright date on the rear.
The dolls’s condition is extremely important.A doll which is complete,undamaged and all original is desirable to collectors.If parts are missing or replaced this downgrades the doll considearbly. Any attempts to paint the doll will destroy much of its value.Better to leave the doll in faded condition as it is worth more than a painted doll. Some early Barbies were made from a plastic which fades to white as it ages. Don’t ever try to restore the original color.
Collectors want premium dolls.These are all original,in excellent condition and in the original box or package.
An old Barbies ears will at times turn green. This is due to corrosion of the earrings and lowers the value of the doll. Limbs can turn brittle with age and break off. The face of the doll is very important.The face should have bright intact paint.The painted fingernails,toenails and lips should be in bright,intact condition. The value of the doll depends on small things like this which collectors look for.
The oldest dolls made from 1959 through early 1960s are of course the hardest to find in good condition. They have been played with for many years often which results in a lot of wear and damage. Hence if you find a really nice doll from this period,which is in exceptional condition, you have something quite scarce which collectors will pay for. You will probably rummage through many boxes of dolls at garage sales and flea markets before you find a 1959 Barbie but they are out there and the thrill of the hunt is all part of the game. Would you like to know where you can find lots of collectible Barbies? Well –

Does Mattel plan on reproducing all of there vintage Barbie’s some day?
I really want Mattel to reproduce all there dolls with the boxes and all there clothes like a regular doll in stead of a collectors item.I want them to make all of my favorites like Tutti,Todd,and Chris.And whatever happened to Stacey Barbie’s british pal?I know I’m young to have seen these dolls but,when my mom was young she played with them and she lost a lot of them in moving and when she grew up because her mother got rid of them and I remember we did’nt have alot of money when I was smaller and I had no dad around so I played with some of the barbies as girl friends to my G.I. joe’s.I like to collect some of the dolls too.Are they going to make a new P.J. either or the origninal look to skipper?or Fluff and Tiff?I want to collect some for me and replace the ones my mom lost.Where could I go?does Mattel still make these?
As of now, there are no current plans to do reproductions of all of Barbie’s friends & the ones that have been done & will be done will be part of the collectibles line.
There have been quite a few reproductions in recent years & Mattel has a new & improved reproduction body that is being used. Bill Greening is the head designer for the reproduction dolls & is very, very talented.
There was a vintage reproduction Midge doll done in 2003 that was available at Toys R Us & a vintage reproduction Ken done in 2007.
Stacey was reproduced in a gift set called Stacey in Nite Lightning that was released in 2006.
Christie was a very limited doll for members of the Barbie Fan Club, an online doll club that is a part of Barbie Collectibles. There were 999 of her made & they sold out within minutes.
There was a Barbie & Ken reproduction set done this year. Barbie is wearing Friday Night Date & I think Ken is wearing Campus Casual or something like that.
There is another Barbie & Ken reproduction set coming out sometime this fall. Barbie is wearing the cheerleader outfit & Ken is a football player.
The Knitting Pretty reproduction giftset features red haired Barbie & Skipper & was issued earlier this year.
Check out www.barbiecollector.com for information about the vintage reproduction dolls. Several of the above listed dolls & gift sets are still available there. There is also a showcase that shows a lot of dolls from the last 30 years & I think that most of the vintage reproductions are in that showcase.
Next year is the 50th Anniversary of Barbie & while I don’t know any details, I do know that there are supposed to be several reproduction dolls, both vintage & MOD inspired..
