Poor Barbie needs a bath, but she is still gorgeous.
Wish I knew all the particulars about the different shades of blonde and what some colors will change /oxidize to after the years. Her white lips are fantastic! All these factors together kind of determine the value of a Bubble Cut Barbie. Also, how much nail polish, scratches, green ear, or missing digits.
All the doll folks who knew this sort of thing like the backs of their hands are long gone from these forums.
That 12 marking on the butt is nothing important to value. What is, if the head is on correct body. Midge/Barbie bodies came after the Barbie only body in 1963. Me thinks this Barbie should be on a Barbie only.
