From 1968 to 1973 there were four vintage Christie Barbie Dolls – Talking, Twist ‘n Turn, Live Action and Malibu. The Christie Doll has continued to be sold through the 1970s, 1980s, 1990s and [...]

Julia Barbie Doll, Julia Dolls

The Julia Barbie Doll was one of the first Celebrity Barbie Dolls. It was introducted in 1969. Julia was a hit TV show that ran from 1968 to 1971. Diahann Carroll played Julia Baker, a widowed single Mom and Registered Nurse, in this ground breaking role – one of the first prime time [...]

Truly Scrumptious Doll, Truly Scrumptious Barbie

The Truly Scrumptious Doll was one of the first “celebrity” Barbie Dolls, released along with the Julia doll in 1969. The doll is based on a character of the same name from the wildly popular kids movie, Chitty, Chiity, Bang, Bang. There were two Truly Scrumptious Barbie Dolls – a “standard” one on the traditional straight leg [...]

PJ Dolls

PJ Dolls were introduced in 1969 when Barbie’s Friend Midge received a makeover and a new name. Using the same Midge face and head mold, PJ was more hip and mod than Midge. PJ had long blonde pigtails, brown eyes with blue eye shadow and wickedly long rooted eye lashes. Here is a complete [...]

TNT Barbie

TNT Barbie got a new look in 1969. Twist ‘n Turn Barbie got a new hairstyle – a shoulder length flip, arguably inspired by the hit TV show That Girl which ran from 1966 to 1971 and starred Marlo Thomas with a similar hairstyle. This Barbie is often referred to as TNT Flip or TNT [...]

Any eBay Barbie Sellers Here?

If you sell Barbies on eBay, please let me know. I am thinking about adding a "Dealer Spotlight" area to the website.
Thanks-

My Barbie History
