WOW 3 Vintage SL SKIPPER Barbie Blonde Brunette Titian Redhead DOLL LOT OSS BIN

Description

Here are 3 cute little sisters from the '60s; a sweet
light blonde Straight Leg Skipper, a pretty Brunette Straight Leg Skipper, and Titian Redhead Straight Leg Skipper
with copper penny hair!   All of these dolls have been played with, so they are not for "Mint" collectors.   But they are nice dolls that will look great on display, especially in their outfits that match vintage big sister Barbie.  These dolls all have had slight retouching on their lipstick, and the Titian Skipper had a small touch up to her brows.  They were retouched with water-based acrylic paint, so the work is removable if you don't like it.  They don't have any haircuts, neck splits, poke marks, or green staining from their headbands.   The dolls have been wiped down, but they still will need some light cleaning on their arms and legs.
The dolls will come in their original swimsuits with one pair of red flats, an original Exclusive Fashions booklet, and a reproduction headband that will not stain Skipper green, see pic #3.  T
he Kaiser doll stands are not included in this auction.
I don't rate anything as "Mint" unless I've just taken it out of its original packaging.  I've collected vintage Barbie for over 30 years, and I scrutinize my dolls that I list on eBay.  If you have a question that I don't address in the description, please ask me:). I am selling a large vintage Barbie collection on eBay, so you may want to save me as a seller.
The repro headband won't stain Skipper; I bought it off of eBay within the last 6 months, so I think you can find more of these easily.  The red flats are marked Japan on the bottom, and don't have any cracks.  The 5 Face Exclusive Fashions booklet is Near Mint; it has all of its pages, and no writing inside.  It shows Skipper's early fashions and Barbie and Ken Travel Costumes and Little Theatre outfits.
Blonde SL Skipper:
Skipper has thick light blonde hair that is slightly dry.  Her longer length hair is in very good condition, but her bangs have gotten a little brittle.  A small section of her bangs on the right side of her face (right in the pic) look matted and a little frizzy.  She has a few stray hairs at the sides of her face, and a few broken hairs at her part area on top of her head.  Her skin tone is nice with no discoloration.  Her eyebrows are all original, but her pink lips had a small bit of rubbing, so they were touched up.  She doesn't have any earring holes, neck tears, or scuffs or poke marks.  No green staining anywhere.  Her straight leg body is marked  Skipper 1963 on her right butt cheek.  She doesn't have any stains on her body.  Her joints are pretty tight overall; her right arm has a little slippage in a low position from 0 degrees to 15 degrees in front (0 degrees being down at her side).  Her original swimsuit is in Excellent shape; it has some light soil at the butt, and some faint soil at the sides of the torso.  The elastic is stretching out at the back waist, and it needs a 1/4" seam repair at the right shoulder seam.
Brunette SL Skipper:
This cutie has super nice condition warm brunette hair!  Her bangs and long length hair is very smooth and shiny, and she has lots of hair too.  She has some stray hairs at the sides of her face that need to be teased out of her bangs, but her hair looks really good.  Her pink lips got refreshed as they were a little thin, but her eyebrows are all original.  Her face and arms are a shade tanner than her torso and legs, it's not a big difference.  She doesn't have any smoke or bad smells.  She doesn't have any neck splits, green stains or poke marks on her face.  She is marked Skipper 1963 on her right butt cheek.  Her body is in good condition with tight arm and leg joints.  She doesn't have any stains, but I noticed 3 tiny pin point blue specks on her upper right arm.  Her original swimsuit is in Very Good to Excellent condition.  There is some pinkish color bleed on the white braid trim that forms a "V" on the suit at the upper shoulder areas on both sides.  The lower front right red part of the suit looks like it has light surface soil, it might spot clean off.  The striped bottom part of the suit has soil front and back.  The elastic waist has stretched out a lot.
Titian Redhead SL Skipper:
This little sister has bright copper penny colored hair!  I really love her hair color, and her hair is in quite nice, shiny condition.  She has a few stray hairs at the sides of her face, and a couple broken hairs.  Her bangs on the left side of her face (left in the pic) need a little help laying down smoothly, see pic #10.  When she wears her headband, it makes them lay down better.  Her hair seems a little on the thin side, but she seems to have hair in every plug.  Skipper got a little retouch on her pink lips, and a color wash on her brows, as one brow tip was rubbed.  No green stains, neck splits, or poke marks.  Her body is marked Skipper 1963 on her right butt cheek.  Her joints hold all poses.  She has slight pinkish coloration at the tops of her legs (mainly toward the back top of the legs), probably from wearing something red for many years, see pic #12.  Her original swimsuit is in Excellent shape; it's pretty clean with some elastic stretch left at the waist.  The back striped portion of the suit has a tiny bit of soil.
You will enjoy having these pretty Skippers in your vintage Barbie display!  Please see my other auctions for vintage Barbie doll and clothing lots, and for other toys from the '50s-'70s.  I'm happy to combine shipping for multiple purchases:)
