Vintage Barbie Dolls 1960s

Hi everyone So recently I bought a mix bay of doll clothes,accessories and shoes. Most of them look to be of both modern and vintage Barbies and I was wondering if can help me ID what Barbies these are off. I got these pink leggings, pink bag,camera and red shoes I was told by a friend that the red,pink square bag and red shoe look to be off 1960s or early 1970s Barbies(bear in she is a doll collector who collects Barbies and Sindy dolls from those years I just want a double check if she is right or not if she is right these possibly be my oldest doll stuff I own). Any help is greatly appreciated. Well see you all in my next post. submitted by /u/FyraBarman to r/VintageBarbies [link] [comments]

Hi everyone I decided to post an updated of my growing collection of Vintage Barbie dolls and clothing. I have been quite lucky with some of my finds recently especially as I found quite few of them with their original outfits on or near all their outfits on. My favourite one in collection so far is my 1991 Happy Holidays Barbie as I love her dress and she looks so pretty. I just out of curiosity please let me know if I got any rare or hard to get dolls in collection just pure curiosity. All my dolls are from the early to late 90s and my doll outfits are ruffly from the early to late 80s to early 90s maybe later. I really enjoy collecting them and I found most of my dolls and clothing(apart from few clothing that I was given) in charity shops. Most of them came from the same charity shop as I volunteer for one so when I find one I brought them soon as I can. I plan buying some more soon off eBay eventually. I hope one day to find a some dolls from the 1960s or older hopefully one day I get lucky. Anyway I am going on a bit. I do my best to look after my dolls and when I get them I attempt to fix them up best I can and if possible when they missing they outfits I attempt to make them new out fit or clothing them in my spare Barbie clothes I got in my mix doll clothes and accessories box. I do restore them to best my ability but I don’t over do it as I do like them to have some wear and tear from being preloved as it gives them character. Hope you all like my collection so far and please feel free to say which doll in my collection is your favourite.

Hi everyone This my first post on here and I been collecting vintage and none vintage Barbies for ruff 5 months.

These are the dolls that started my whole doll collection, leading to the discovery of antique dolls as I searched for them. Like earlier Barbies, Liddle Kiddles were manufactured in Japan in the 1960s and their faces are hand-painted. The bodies have wire armature, making them posable, but the metal causes greenish discoloration of the vinyl and also breaks and pokes through their “skin.” The vinyl itself has proven to be unstable and often turns pale and faintly greenish. They came with wonderful miniature accessories—whatever I have is shown with the matching doll. The storybook dolls had little books with them! The “big kiddles” are Chris, Tutti and Todd (Barbie line, 1960s) and Buffy from the Family Affair tv show. There are also a few Hasbro wannabes in the mix, which were childhood dolls given to me by a friend. This is by no means a mint or complete collection, but I enjoy having these surprisingly fragile little dolls out in a pre-zombie state! I wanted to share them before then, too! submitted by /u/willowwing to r/Antiquedollcollecting [link] [comments]
