Product Description
A must for all fans of 111/2-inch fashion dolls, this newest book by Margo Rana is an identification and price guide to all of the variations of Barbie play and collector dolls which were manufactured by Mattel in the decade of the 1980s -- the favourite period of the 'pink box collectors'. Also included are versions of Ken, P J, Whitney, Midge, Christie, Skipper and other Mattel favourites, including the trendy dolls that were 'the Rockers'. The 80s were also a prime period for the wonderful Black, Hispanic and Asian versions of the Barbie family. The costuming ranges from beachwear to wedding gowns. In almost every case, the different variations of each type of doll is shown and described -- from Magic Curl to Super Star dolls, from Beach Blast to the Astronaut group, every collector will find a favourite in this smashing book which is illustrated with 450 colourful photographs.
