As far as #1 Barbie bodies go, this body is in great shape as far as even coloring and no stains except for slight shoe stain on the left foot! Her arms and torso are even in color and have no staining from a swimsuit being left on her. Her legs are a little bit lighter and more white than her torso.
Her Barbie TM markings are prominent and not worn at all. SHE HAS THE RARER NIPPLED BODY! However, I notice these on my #3 bodies also, and may just be factory flaws on the solid vinyl bodies. The one on her left leg on the front almost looks like a fingerprint indentation. You might be able to notice these in the enlarged photos, but they are just slight indentations here and there.She has a lot of her nail paint and some toe paint on at least 4 of her toes on each floor. Her neck knob was broken off, so I have put a screw in it with a wide head to hold a head on. This works well as I have shown in the 3rd picture and the head is on tight.
With a head on the body, no one will know the difference!! If you have a better fix for a broken neck knob, then you are all set! She has the elusive holes in her feet to fit on a #1 stand. The tube in her left foot is there and prominent. The tube in her right foot has either been shoved up in or is missing.
I can't see it with my bear eye. The hole is elongated as shown in the photo from possibly the removal of the tube. This will not show when placed on a stand.She has JAPAN written lengthwise on her right foot, as should be. If you have a #1 or #2 head, then she is the answer to your prayers! If not, I have a good #3 head candidate in my other auctions, for a repaint! She has no eyebrows, and she has blue eyeliner! All she would need is her eyes repainted white, which these were hand painted originally anyway, and some pointed eyebrows painted on her!
A great project for the creative artist and a cheap way to acquire a #1 Barbie doll!! Check her out and my other vintage Barbie dolls and outfits! I even have the vintage Easter Parade and Roman Holiday outfits that would look great on her! The item "#1 BARBIE BODY IN EXCELLENT CONDITION!
