I loved playing with Barbies as a child! I had quite a collection, that is, until my Mom sold them all when she moved from our house to a condo! I didn't figure it out until a few years after she had sold them. That is when I started becoming obsessed with vintage Barbies! Several years ago, my daughter, Lindsey and I, pretty much had a pasttime of buying vintage Barbies and Barbie clothes! Lindsey ended up with quite a collection, which is stored somewhere in our house right now!
I managed to dig up some of the collection and had put pictures up on Flickr awhile ago. You can find them at www.flickr.com/jenscloset.
I happened to be at ToysRUs about a week ago (hadn't been in there in such a long time since my kids are older now). I was there to find a gift for my nephew Bobby, but I just had to check out the Barbies! I'm so excited, they have a new collection of reproduction Barbies! So, how could I resist!? I had to buy this 1964 Ponytail Barbie! Check out that adorable pink dress (I think I had that one)!
I also have this cute 35th Anniversary 1963 Midge set, and I KNOW I had that dress when I was little! It was one of my favorites!
This is really just a tiny percent of our collection. Someday I'll get it all out and play with it!
My birthday is in May, and I'm hoping for another reproduction Barbie!
Have fun-don't forget to play!
