Hello doll lovers!! Can not believe I am actually doing a doll post! I got to go to a few yard sales this past weekend and I found this girl. She was by herself on a table with a bunch of tools. I could not resist her for $5, her box is pretty beat up but she is in perfect condition.
She is the 1996 reproduction 1961 wedding day barbie, the red head version. Her original price tag was 38.99 but was bought on clearance for $20. She does not sell for a lot online but I am keeping her so it does not matter to me. I have a couple other reproductions that I got thrifting that need to be cleaned up, so she will not be alone. I also have some vintage barbies that she will be displayed with. Like I have been saying from here on out I am trying my best to be selective with what I buy but this girl had to come home with me for $5!
When I took her out of the box her elastics had irroded and were stuck in her hair, I replaced them with new ones and fixed her hair style. She came with a stand and her bouquet (that also had elastic stuck to it) and a bag of accessories. Her accessories was a pair of gloves, brush, little white pumps and a garter belt (so cute). I have heard people say keeping a doll in the box is bad for them and now I believe it. Glad I got her and rescued her from that mess.
