Barbies
You had asked me for some photos of my collection. This is a photo I took yesterday. I was asked to speak at a luncheon about my dolls, so I took with me some of the basics, plus some reference books and one of my photo albums. (Some day I will have to transfer the photos in the album to disc.)
I know this won't mean much to most of you, but these are the dolls in the photo:
Two Barbies from each decade: 1960s, bubblecut and Twist N Turn; 1970s, Malibu and SuperStar; 1980s, Peaches N Creme and the first Holiday; and 1990s, Totally Hair and Teacher.
Plus the basic Barbie family: her siblings Skipper; the twins Stacie (AKA Tutti) and Todd; little Kelly (AKA Chelsea and Shelly); baby Krissy; her cousins Francie and Jazzie; and, of course, her boyfriend Ken and his little brother Tommy.
The Francie doll is from my childhood. She has the short blonde hair and is wearing the wild print minidress with matching tights. I bought all of the other dolls and all of the outfits as an adult collector.
