SUNKISSED BLONDE TNT with RARE BLUE EYELINER DATE:1967
Super Gorgeous Sunkissed Blonde Twist n Turn with Rare Blue Eyeliner. It's been said that these dolls were made especially for the Beautiful Blues Giftset sold by Sears in 1967 although they have also been found in NRFB Trade In Boxes.This particular Doll is in Fantastic Condition! Her hair is in the Original Hairset with Original Ribbon but the top band has disintegrated and is completely gone with bow holding the top pony in place.The hair itself is super sleek,shiny and almost glowing,Nice and long in back with the usual layered cut at the bottom,Her Face Paint is All Original and Near Mint to Mint,Perfect brows,Beautiful Eyes Topped with Matching Rare Blue Eyeliner,Full Deep Pink Lips and Mega Blushed Cheeks,Lashes are all there with a few slightly bent,Excellent Facial Coloration,One micro pin tap at the right and 3 micro taps at the left,as you can see in the pic they're almost impossible to see,Gorgeous Body on this Beauty too,Arms move freely but hold every pose,Hips are super tight and the legs are super hard and loud clicking,retouch to faded nails and retouch to the toes for a factory finished look.Very Good to Excellent Original SS,I did restitch a seam opening in back. Over all She's a Stellar Example of this Rare and Highly Collectible Vintage Barbie!!! 595.00 SOLD Another Quote from Chris Varaste's Book The face of the American Dream which is my Absolute Favorite on Blue Eyeliner TNT's."As a result these dolls are among the rarest and most exquisite of the mod era Dolls".You can read more about them in his book pg.166
