Had to chuckle at how you said "this collecting thing" My husband says it too and I"ll bet in the Archived Message Posted by Chataine/Val on 5/7/2017, 8:53 am, in reply to "Thanks, Val! I've been collecting since about 1984 and...." same way - but really just to tease me.. Your collection is fantastic Bethany - I so love seeing it.. ((Waving to you )) Val --Previous Message-- : had no idea what I was doing, really. In : central PA I was kind of cut off from the : fledgling collector movement. It wasn't : until I went into a book store a few years : later and saw an early issue of Barbie : Bazaar that "this collecting : thing" as my husband calls it, started : to get out of hand. I always point out that : I knew Barbie long before I knew him. ;-) : : --Previous Message-- : collection ever ((WAving to you )) Val : : --Previous Message-- : But two fun things I've picked up recently. : I : had the Superstar Barbie pen and poster set : when I was a kid. My brother had a similar : Hot Wheels set. There are two different : posters in one set, both featuring actual : Superstar-era Barbie and Ken fashions, cars, : and accessories. : : A few years ago, I framed mine from my : childhood as I had them when I was a little : older and colored them in pretty well, but : always wished I had an NRFB set. This one : came up a few months ago and I lucked into : it. Someone on another board asked me if : the pens still worked. It's been 40 years, : so probably not. : : The sticker set I never had, but I saw them : on ebay - as set of two for $5. Sounded : like a good deal to me. :-) : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Message Thread: Pretty much not to theme... - Bethany in PA 5/3/2017, 7:42 am Lovely! - Selina 5/4/2017, 10:12 am Great find and piece, so happy you found another set. - Judy in Pa 5/3/2017, 7:57 pm Such fun Bethany - Ann in the UK 5/3/2017, 4:00 pm You have the best licensed items. - Margie 5/3/2017, 10:19 am Oh that coloring set is awesome!!! - Steph in ma 5/3/2017, 8:51 am How cool!
