I've loved Barbies for a long time, and here's another tip (from one of my Collector's books):<br />Some Barbies (particularly first models from the 50s & 60s) can develop an oily film or finish on their bodies, a result of the chemical combinations used to create the plastic. It can be aggravated by direct sun exposure or improper packaging.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02737690055900129658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7263106909888880829.post-91818108781485408192009-08-16T16:55:42.603-05:002009-08-16T16:55:42.603-05:00great tips, Lindsey!

(My pony tailed Barbie seems to have gone poof - the one I found was the "bubble cut" one.)<br /><br />Alas mine weren't lovingly taken care of by me - I'm shocked at how hard I played with them. <br /><br />Love the photo of the Barbie party!Sally Annie Magundyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16150258920599400128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7263106909888880829.post-80612792740262684792009-08-13T06:53:41.939-05:002009-08-13T06:53:41.939-05:00Wow!
