Collectibly Yours Barbie Doll 1980-1990
A must for all fans of 11-1/2inch 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 favorite period of the "pink box collectors". Also included are versions of Ken, P.J., Whitney, Midge, Christie, Skipper, and other Mattel favorites, 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 beach wear 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 favorite in these smashing colorful photographs.
