This doll, Stock No. 850, is in excellent condition, complete with her original box, accessories, and rare extras, making it a perfect addition to any serious collection. One of her most remarkable features is her original factory-set hairstyle, which has never been restyled.

Condition: This beautiful doll has spent all its days in its box and is ready for the right collector to show it off. There is no wear-and-tear and it's quite possible she has never experienced a change of clothes, since there was no stretch to her swimsuit when I took the image of the Barbie stamp. That said, buyer should be aware that there is:Discoloration around the earring holes, typical for dolls of this era, as shown in the photos.A small scuff on the back of her left leg, probably from the box and also pictured.Otherwise, her face paint, hair, and body are in excellent condition, and the box is intact with bright colors and minimal wear.Inserts (booklet and flyer) are in mint condition, which is rare for dolls of this age. Why This Doll? This doll isn’t just a Barbie; it’s a window into early 1960s fashion and culture. With its complete accessories, original box, and rare mint inserts, this is a collector’s dream. The inclusion of the Barbie Sings! flyer and the original tag makes this set especially unique and valuable.
