Sassy, I know you had fun with the dream house. I know you love Barbie as much as I do.

Re: FSI, a few years ago it was valued at $5,000
The prices change through the years. Hers is in excellent condition and she has the original box.

There really is a Barbie culture there. That sounds incredible about the house...I wonder how much your mother's original Barbie is worth.

Oh dear. I never played with dolls, except to scalp a doll belonging to one of our neighbor's daughters when acting out a game off Cowboys and Indians. I sure got whatfor because of that!! Besides having to apologize, they took away my play guns and holster for 2 weeks!!

Re: Me too, Goldiec
I played with her for hours. I used to make throw pillows for her plastic furniture. I had her dream house, the country camper, a wardrobe case, her car, a swimming pool, her beach van, a thousand and one accessories, her sister, her boyfriend, and all of her friends.

Good Afternoon
Sassy, I love Barbie! I had Barbie and Ken and Skipper. My Barbie had a sports car and lots of clothes. I had Barbie and Ken get married over and over again. I had a big fancy case to take Barbie and Ken wherever I went. Barbie had a canopy bed and a vanity too. It makes me smile to think about it. I never had a Barbie house though so my bedroom was her house. My friends all had Barbie and Ken too. I've always bought my granddaughters Barbie. The holiday Barbie comes out once a year and she's always beautiful!

Oh my goodness and I didn't know she was around that early. I don't think she reached Australia for many more years later. more like 1970....but then i wasn't looking for toys before 1968 after my first was born.
